For the Pros
Already a Pro?
We will work together to strengthen your craft! Whether it’s further developing your authenticity as an artist, improving your stage presence or increasing your vocal endurance, we will advance and solidify your technique. Being a pro artist requires the physical and psychological discipline to deal with all the factors that you will encounter while on tour and on stage.
Early on in my career as a recording and touring artist, I had come to understand (the hard way) the importance of endurance and proper technique. I had started suffering from vocal loss and strain. It launched me into a deeper study that sought to better understand live performance and the voice as a physical instrument. I trained with a vocal / speech pathologist [NYU Langone Health] and a vocologist / performing artist [Tylel Ross, NYU] in New York City. Both of whom, had helped advance my training in developing a healthy and confident singing and live performance approach that has brought life-long benefits, that I share with the singer/bands that I work with.
