Hi! My name is Lance, and I am unashamedly an opera geek. I was trained initially as a tenor by Sue Blouin, then by Georgia Wellborn and Joseph Blass (both students of Elena Nikolaidi) with pedagogy coursework by Karen Dale. On the graduate level, I was trained as a countertenor by Shirley Zielinski under the auspices of Richard Miller, along with additional private and pedagogical study with Keith Moore and Kristi Whitten. It was during this time that I made my professional debut as the Shepherd Boy in Puccini's "Tosca" with Nashville Opera. However, I consider myself retired from the stage, for I have such a stronger desire to teach; I absolutely LOVE my babies, and how gratifying it is to watch them grow and develop in their own individual artistries! When I am not teaching, I probably am spending time with friends and coworkers at Elan and/or Tribe, two ridiculously delicious addictions you should try if you are a social butterfly who loves enhancing your image.
