Be content with what you have, rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.

The supreme act of forgiveness is when you can forgive yourself for all the wounds you've created in your own life. Forgiveness is an act of self-love. When you forgive yourself, self-acceptance begins and self-love grows.
Don Miguel Ruiz

If we examine every stage of our lives, we find that from our first breath to our last we are under the constraint of circumstances. And yet we still possess the greatest of all freedoms, the power of developing our innermost selves in harmony with the moral order of the Universe, and so winning peace at heart whatever obstacles we meet.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The word enlightenment conjures up the idea of some
superhuman accomplishment, and the ego likes to keep
it that way, but it is simply your natural state of felt oneness
with Being. It is a state of connectedness with something
immeasurable and indestructible, something that, almost
paradoxically, is essentially you and yet is much greater
than you. It is finding your true nature beyond name and form.
Eckhart Tolle

I was very fortunate to have a God-given talent in voice and piano, which enabled me to receive a full scholarship to the University of North Texas. My life took many turns, leading me to NYC, where I studied with Max Walmer, a coach with the Metropolitan Opera, and was a member of the Opera Studio of the Metropolitan Opera. Under grants such as the Rockefeller Grant, the Grady Harlan Grant, Town Hall Grant and others, I was able to continue my classical training before going to Europe where I had an extensive operatic/concert career in countries such as Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Monaco, Belgium, among others, as well as the United States.
Upon returning to the States, I founded the Vocal-Artistic Studio, Inc.
I have had so many incredible students so far, who have been privy to
the technique I studied...the original Italian Bel Canto Vocal Technique.
I have also believed, as I do now, that we are ALL here on Earth with a specific purpose. Some of us are consciously aware, and others perhaps are still veiled of the memory. But on some level we all are doing our part, connecting with each other within the realms of the Musical Vibrations, which are invariably healing our world. I have said many times and have coined this phrase, "Music is the healing language, that bonds the Heart, the Mind & the Soul of humanity".
I am presently working on expanding my vocal direction to the more contemporary styles. On my profile music player are classical arias which were live performances with various symphony orchestras throughout Europe as well as some of the newer songs recorded within the past year.
I hope you will stop by and listen to our work...leave a comment once in a while. For those who have visited already, I am sincerely appreciative.
