Her New York debut as Prince Meleagro in La Corona at Merkin Hall with the Queen's Chamber Band was enthusiastically received by the full house audience and critically acclaimed in the New York Times.

In addition to singing traditional roles including Lauretta (Gianni Schicchi) and Miss Pinkerton (The Old Maid and the Thief), she created the role of Mary Todd Lincoln/Caroline in Alabama Serenade, an opera by Darrell Hunt.

She teaches vocal masterclasses at universities and high schools, adjudicates competitions, and maintains a private studio in Connecticut. Her teaching philosophy incorporates sound fundamentals for easy, healthy production in all singing styles.
