Dialect Coaching & Voice Teaching
In my work as a voice teacher, I specialize in attuning the voice to the body and the
breath. My students discover their authentic voices through practices based in the Alexander
Technique, Edith Skinner Method and Chuck Jones’ vocal warm-up. My work at Brown University
with Thom Jones, has informed my methods for teaching Shakespeare, dialects and accents. My
students have achieved placement at The Juilliard School of Drama, University of Southern
California, University of Michigan, SUNY Purchase;
and have appeared in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Amazon), If Beale Street Could Talk (Plan B),
The Kids Are Alright (ABC), and Madam Secretary (CBS).
