Dialect Coaching for Theatre & Film
​
I am a voice and dialect coach offering voice, text, accent, or dialect support on plays, musicals, operas, television, film and radio.
-my experience with language makes me a quick study,
-my training as a classical singer affords me an excellent ear,
-my education as a voice coach gives me ample "ways in" to ensure exercises are curated to individual learning styles,
-my love for creative teaching gives actors the opportunity to receive detailed, applicable feedback.
​
After my time as a classical singer and an actor I trained at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London where I earned an MFA in Voice Studies. From there, I served as a voice/text/dialect coach at RADA, the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Univeristy of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music, and now the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the Nebraska Repertory Theatre.
