Private Voice Lessons In Person or ONLINE

My clients include a wide variety of professionals from every continent. I regularly work with individuals around the world online.

I listen to you very carefully. We build upon small successes to help you acquire skills and confidence. We work with the mechanics of American sounds in conversation, drill and reading.

I provide you with printed course materials and carefully instruct you how to handle these challenging sounds in easy steps.

We also work the elements of effective speaking; Breath, Resonance, Pitch, Articulation, Projection and Rate. I give you the tools you need to be understood.

I’ve had great success helping people just like you.

History

Established in 1984.

I hold a graduate degree in Vocal Pedagogy (the teaching of voice) from the University of Michigan. I’ve taught at major universities and worked as a voice and diction specialist with some of the nations top theatres.

Having worked with singers, actors, public speakers and business people from around the world, I have a very sensitive ear and knack for honing in on the strengths and weaknesses of voices and how people make the sounds of language.

My deep understanding of vocal technique and the elements that makes American English unique allows me to create an effective program for each individual.

Teaching Voice and Diction for the Theatre Dept. at San Diego State University, I developed a powerful program and set of materials that will help you master American English.
