I love reconnecting people to their personal power through transformative voice & speech coaching. I have had the opportunity to analyze voice, human behavior, and effective communications via my professional theatre experiences as a voice & dialects coach, actor, and director in 20+ professional productions in the greater Seattle area and San Francisco, 20+ years of singing, songwriting, & composition (classical jazz, contemporary, pop, musical theatre, alternative, & acapella), and twelve years of formal Spanish Language study. Additionally, I concurrently completed my enrolled TESOL certificate at U.C. Berkeley Extension and my Master's in TESOL at the University of San Francisco, to further develop my skills and credentials as a teacher of the English language.  

Over the years, I have explored a diverse array of professions that called to my heart in order to supplement my theatre career, from my starting & running an elite spa at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, to heart-warming experiences as a Certified Behavior Technician with autistic high schoolers at the Academy for Precision Learning, to my diligent service as a Bilingual Voiceover Coach with Jack Straw Cultural Center, to being a 5-Star Veteran Food Tour Guide and Training Specialist with Savor Seattle Food Tours in Pike Place Market. These various workplaces allowed me the opportunity to get to know, befriend, and work alongside a broad range of people with from different cultures, languages, abilities, identities, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
