Meet Ann-Marie
With over a decade of teaching experience, Ann-Marie works with singers and musicians of all ages, helping students build healthy technique, confidence, and expressive communication. Her students have achieved success in All State and District Choirs, collegiate performing arts programs, and musical theatre productions. She has held teaching positions at the Kingsley Academy, 77 Arts Academy, and Wakefield High School. Having worked for one of the country’s foremost classical music PR firms, Unison Media, Ann-Marie has worked behind the scenes with leading classical artists. This experience gives her a unique perspective on both the artistry and communication skills required to build a meaningful career in music.

Private Lessons
My goal is to help every student become a more confident and effective communicator through music. I believe that developing musicality strengthens both artistic expression and interpersonal skills. Through a text-based approach that puts communication first, I help students discover a free, authentic sound in both practice and performance.

Artistic Strategy & Consulting
A successful music career requires more than exceptional artistry, it requires clear communication, thoughtful strategy, and a strong professional presence. With a background in public relations, marketing, and social media management for some of the leading classical musicians in the industry, I bring firsthand experience from working at the highest levels of the field.
