Welcome! I'm glad you're here!
I am a voice coach and stage director based in Lincoln, Nebraska. I moved to Lincoln in 2018 to serve as the Voice.Text.Dialects Coach for the Nebraska Repertory Theatre and as an Assistant Professor of Practice in Voice, Movement, and Acting at the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film. I love working with private clients through my business, Voice: Realized, both in-person and online. My primary goal is to support people in finding the fullest potential of their voice and to feel more fully themselves when speaking and singing. Private sessions can support you with feeling more comfortable with your human instrument - your voice. This could mean showing up as your whole self, speaking for your work or hobby with passion, connecting more fully with people you meet, nailing your next job interview, taking on more leadership responsibilities, getting an acting gig, or singing your dream role.
​
Movement consultations include breath work and voice work to support physical therapy clients in regulating internal pressure, finding stability, ease, mobility, and freedom in their movement. My yoga teaching integrates the inspirations and expressions of the mind, body, and voice to move through the human instrument in harmony.
​
I am a Designated Linklater Instructor and studied classical singing with W. Stephen Smith. I hold a a Master of Music in Vocal Performance and a Master of Fine Arts in Voice Studies, and enjoy exploring the spectrum between speech and song, supporting lawyers, teachers, and performers in fully realizing their vocal potential.
