Meet Our Amazing Choir Director!!
Hello! My name is Cyndi Flores and I am the new director of choirs at Desert Vista! I was born and raised in Northern Utah. I received my bachelor’s degree in Music Performance from Weber State University and did graduate studies at University of Nevada-Reno (while on a full vocal scholarship). While in Reno, I sang with the Nevada Opera Company for 5 years and made many wonderful friends and memories. I am married and we have three boys (two are twins). They all sang in choir during high school and are currently attending college. I was the vocal coach for 7 years at Mesquite High School and there I found a love of choral singing. I went back to school to get my teaching certificate and started teaching at Desert Ridge. I taught there for 8 years and then transferred to Campo Verde HS 2 years ago. I have taught private lessons for over 30 years and I value the lessons I have learned while teaching private lessons.
I truly have a passion for music and the way I have seen it transforms lives. Choirs become second families and support one another in the challenges of high school. I still have friends that I keep in touch with from high school and college choirs! I love seeing students reach goals that they had no idea they could achieve (Regional & All State auditions, college choir auditions and college scholarships) . My expertise is vocal technique and I am so passionate and detailed in my teaching. I have had the challenge of rebuilding programs at the previous schools, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to step into a program with excellence already established. I enjoy exploring different styles of music and sharing that experience with my students. I am so excited for this year and all of the memories we will make together!
