Miss Ena is always singing! From an early age, I have been participating in music activities, such as choir
as well as various musicals like 'Oliver' and 'The Sound of Music'. As music has always been one of my best
friends. Like water, I enjoy drinking from the wellspring of muse and melody. I enjoy music most when it is shared
with the natural joy of children. I have an extensive background of teaching private voice, piano and guitar to children.
It's the best job in the world, getting to watch a child grow through the magic of music! I received my Kindermusik license
in Summer 2005. After working with Dana Harris, formerly of 'Dana's School of Music', Dana thought I would be
a perfect Kindermusik teacher. My education is both experience and university based. In 2003, I graduated from
Clark College with a 3.7 gpa. During my two and a half years at Clark, I studied voice with April Brookins Duvic. I, then
moved on to Portland State University. During my two years at PSU, I studied voice with Margaret Daane and piano with Connie
Titterington. I also attended Marylhurst University working towards my BA in voice performance. I am now taking a break from
school to work on some fundamental musical training. I study voice with Pollyanna Hancock Moody and studied piano with John
Haek. I have done my best work at Marylhurst and plan to return when the time is right. My experience ranges
from childhood productions to improv comedy groups. It is the joy of music that I shared with my late mother that built such
a lifelong foundation. Singing and sharing with mom gave me some great tools for a successful life, but most importantly,
it created an unbreakable bond between her and I and myself and music.
