I am a classical singer and I love opera. Right now I teach voice and piano lessons among other interesting jobs, but I'm auditioning and working my butt off to become an opera singer.

I haven't been on here in a long time. I promise I do answer messages sometimes.

Teaching music lessons, care-giving to a 93 year old, and singing a ton. Going to live music performances, riding my bike, reading, and everything else you can think of.

obviously NOT filling out dating profiles

my horns and braids (opera joke)

Someone told me I look different in all my pictures on here, but that I look the most in person like the pic that is my profile now. It's supposed to be my headshot for singing auditions, but I think I look like a middle school teacher. The opera characters I would play are not middle school teachers.

Such a dumb question

Music and how to sing better.

Hanging out with friends and/or my brother at various locations

I'm a cat lady...ok not really but I do love cats
I've only been to 2 other countries: Mexico and Canada. I DESPERATELY want to go to Europe!

Your whole life is not sports
You are intelligent and love music and art
You like having fun
You like to go out sometimes but enjoy staying in too
Just because I'm an opera singer doesn't mean I don't like to have fun!
