Natalie’s first exposure to music was at six years old with her family’s upright piano. Being the only child of three to give attention to the instrument, her parents signed her up for private piano lessons. She continued to take piano lessons until high school. During the same years of taking lessons, Natalie participated in musicals every summer with her home church.​

In high school, Natalie was in choir all four years and band as a percussionist for the last two years. By junior year in high school, Natalie knew that she wanted to pursue music as a career. As a result, she attended MSU Denver, where she received her Bachelor’s in Music Education.

After graduating from MSU Denver, Natalie taught K-8 music at Good Shepherd Catholic School in Denver and private music lessons outside of the classroom.

Voice Lessons with Natalie are $35 for 30 minute lessons.
