About
85% of my students / clients have reported significant improvement in their professional lives and work opportunities following us working together – I love this! They have also shared with me that it has significantly improved personal communications. I believe that the purpose of working with any coach is to move your life forward as much as possible.
Your voice and speech creates an emotional connection with the listener. It’s up to you to decide what you want that connection to be.
Your voice is something you use every waking hour of the day. It affects all of your personal and professional interactions in every area of your life. This is why I am so passionate about it!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
For everything I teach, I have a step-by-step system in place, including support materials, that I've been using successfully with other students for years.
I always check in with students to see if there is anything specific they'd like to focus on as well, and encourage students to bring material if there is.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Los Angeles based voice and public speaking coach. I have trained in Linklater Voice, Fitzmaurice Vocal Technique, Alexander Technique and Somato Respiratory Integration (breathwork).
My training started out through acting with Meisner Technique, Method Acting + other methodologies of voice and movement, but I quickly moved into the lucrative corporate speaking arena (press releases and new product launches) for major corporations including Chrysler, Glaxo Smith Kline and The American Beauty Association. I have also trained and sold from stage for my own coaching business.
I can help you master not only your vocal skills but presentation skills and audience engagement.
I have worked with a wide variety of professionals including specialty physicians, university professors, legal professionals, entrepreneurs and entertainers. I have coached and trained clients on voice, accents, live presentations and on-camera /video presence. You get the benefit of my years of training + extensive work in the entertainment industry. We cover everything you need to connect with your audience, even the tech. The learning experience is holistic and fun! And you’ll see measurable results from the very first session.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
There’s no one “right” way to speak, ever. It’s only what’s right for you and your desired outcome. I teach proven techniques of voice and speech + the personal skills of presentation, how to emotionally connect with your listeners and how to optimize your tech when needed.
The most critical aspect is to find a teacher or coach you connect with who can help you achieve your desired goals and match their teaching style to your learning style.
