Andrew's goal as a teacher is to give every student the vocal and musical tools they need to tell their own stories through song. While his primary training is in classical singing, good vocal habits like easy breaths, clear vowels and musical phrasing can apply to any genre. He began teaching himself piano at 13 and now plays a wide variety of music from accompanying operatic arias to jazz standards. Andrew offers two paths to learning piano - a more technique oriented approach for beginning classical students, and a more music theory oriented approach for students who want to play lead sheets, pop songs, and write their own songs. Andrew holds degrees in voice from Westminster Choir College (B.M., magna cum laude), Indiana University’s Jacob School of Music (M.M.), and New England Conservatory (Graduate Diploma).
