"I had never sung in my life, and I wanted to learn to sing properly. Julie created a very comfortable environment in which to learn. She did a fabulous job teaching me the fundamentals at first, and from there she has been helping me expand my abilities.

Regardless of your level of experience, Julie can guide you on the journey to improve your singing skills."

-Brian O.

Reading Music

Those dots on the paper don't have to be a mystery! Music is very logical and can be broken down into bite-size chunks that you can master in no time, even if you are starting from scratch.

Singing

A singer's voice is very personal, and I get that. Improving your voice takes the courage to experiment. I will work with you to get you from where you are now to where you want to be.

In a quartet, chorus, or other ensemble? I am available to coach and help you make your group sound bigger and better than ever!
