If you're a professional singer eager to discover your authentic jazz voice, my 12-week, one-on-one program is designed just for you. Together, we’ll dive into your personal goals to find your unique sound. Along the way, we’ll tackle key challenges like communicating with a band, decoding the 'insider knowledge' taught in jazz college, and exploring the rich heritage of jazz vocals. You’ll also get practical tools to boost your confidence and elevate your performance.
​
Each week, you'll receive personalized guidance with exercises and takeaways that you can practice and apply right away, so you're always moving forward. I know you have the potential to captivate an audience, but something might be holding you back—maybe it’s uncertainty about your own stage presence or what you truly offer within this genre. That’s where I come in. You don’t have to be limited by 'singer stereotypes' that make you feel less than authentic. I'm here to help you break free from that, perform with conviction, and own your unique voice.
​
Let’s work together to uncover your full potential, build your confidence, and transform your stage presence. Ready to step into your artistry? Let’s get started!
