About me

I'm a classically-trained soprano who specializes in experimental music. I live in New Haven with my husband, composer and bassist Carl Testa. In 2006, I wrote my Master's thesis, entitled "Adventures in Singing: Collaborating with Composers". Singing new music is my favorite thing to do, with opera a close second. I've also studied jazz and South Indian voice, and have experience with overtone singing, shape note singing, early music, and pop. I can play a little tenor and bari sax; very, very little. I study voice with fabulous mezzo, amazing teacher, and dear friend Elizabeth Saunders.

To make a living, I work as a Catalog Assistant at Yale's Sterling Memorial Library. I am working towards an on-line Master of Library Sciences from the University of Illinois, so that someday I can be an actual librarian, preferably a music cataloger, and hopefully afford to work part-time so I can do more of this music stuff.

Besides music and work, I'm compulsively domestic and am constantly seeking time to work on sewing, embroidery, and various "crafting" projects, and to cook decadent carnivorous meals for my husband and myself. I'm an avid bird-watcher, and a lover of pet rats, Pembroke Welsh Corgis, and all other furry mammals (except monkeys [shudder]). Finally, I am a fashion junkie and could easily fritter away all my hard-earned money on clothing, shoes, and makeup that hardly fit my lifestyle.

Thanks for visiting!
