I'm a vocally trained singer with 10+ years of performance experience. I have been trained classically, but can sing any style of music. I am also bilingual (ENG/ESP), but have sung in french, latin, and german as well. I am just getting started as a session vocalist and would love to work with you!
I am a session vocalist who has been trained classically, but can sing any style of music! I take direction well and want to help you elevate your song to the level you want it to be. I have mainly been a live singer for most of my life, but would like to grow my portfolio more by taking job offers on SoundBetter. I started off singing at 9 years old at my church choir and have grown ever since. I am currently working as an elementary music teacher and wedding/quinceañera singer, but am wanting to use my voice for sessions as well.
Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.
