When I’m talking about "finding your voice", I mean that both metaphorically (creatively expressing yourself), and physiologically (the functional, musculoskeletal portion of the instrument). 

These two systems work together and are inseparable in healthy expression of who we are, yet most of us have been separated from that connection.

My goal is to expand the definition of voice to include both aspects and use the term voice as a more holistic part of who we are, so that we can be more of ourselves. Through my specific training in the physiological aspect of the voice, I have had the privilege of making connections between these inner and outer worlds. If anything, voice has been an incredible metaphor to me, that has resulted in physical and emotional transformations I could’ve never imagined heading into this field.

While I worked primarily as a voice, piano and songwriting coach for many years, I noticed that the biggest breakthroughs happened working on the psychological aspects of the voice and personal expression, and that changing the mindset or the mind maps could create tangible changes, without activating the motor skills needed to perform the action.

This led me into a bigger journey of what was holding me back from releasing my true expression, and that journey extended into my teaching, so much so that I often never felt like I was teaching music, or that I fit into the “musician” world.

I have often seen myself as an outlier, a rebel, and ultimately, out of place. That feeling, although perceivingly negative, has transmuted into a positive force to be reckoned with. I appreciate that when something doesn’t seem right, I don’t settle. I know there is something deep within me that is constantly surfacing, and I see that as my voice. I am passionate about helping others along that journey as well.

Perhaps the experts might tell me to “niche down”, but the rebel in me says that no matter who you are and what you do, I can help you develop your sense of self and purpose through the concept of "voice". I help you with the artistic, metaphoric side so that -whether you're creating spreadsheets and canva templates or writing music poetry and plays- you can express yourself deeply, with more freedom.

And because of my background, I also work specifically with the physical (speaking and singing) voice so that you’re able to use it to communicate in a way that feels aligned with who you are. Whether you are , recording a podcast, preparing for a presentation, writing songs, singing songs, doing voiceover work—I can help you sound like YOU: the voice you hear and know exists...

Your voice IS the sonic representation of who you are.
