The sound of a speaker’s voice matters twice as much as the content of the message.
I’m a voice & public speaking coach for people in academia, business, law, and creative fields who are looking to improve their speaking voice & delivery -- because how we share our vision matters as much as what it is, and I want you to have the tools to move your audience & change the world.
Together we can find your voice.
Your Voice Matters.
A 2013 study found that the sound of a speaker’s voice matters twice as much as the content of the message. In fact, listeners make first impressions based on the voice, including judgments on intelligence, trustworthiness & likability.
Vocal training uses techniques to develop a powerful, compelling and authentic voice that represents you.

The Vocal Makeover —
5 x 60-minute Zoom sessions + in-between email and WhatsApp connectivity
The Vocal Makeover works to bridge the gap between voice technique and being able to own the sound in your everyday life. The training relieves tension that may be impeding your authentic voice and presence in communication. Each session is bespoke to you, but looks at three main areas:
BODY: Finding a connection to the body so that energy moves with ease and authenticity
BREATH: Connection to breathing to power a voice that is powerful and present
VOICE: Finding a natural voice that is embodied, free & connected.
As The Vocal Makeover involves highly individualized attention, places are strictly limited.
The Intensive may be all that you need at this time, but if after the sessions you decide you desire to continue working with me you have the opportunity to schedule single sessions on a rolling basis.
The rate for The Vocal Makeover is £780, inclusive of VAT. (payment plans are available).

YOUR ACCENT INTENSIVE
Public Speaking
Public speaking is the most feared activity — after dying.
Public speaking training works on presence, vocal stamina & matching your voice to your material. We may also work on the content and structure of your speech, and can address improvisational questions at the end of the presentation.
I guarantee that you can feel confident and prepared to thrive in front of an audience.
Vocal Pitch & Tone
Did you know you can improve your vocal pitch & tone up to 80%?
However, the majority of men and women feel self-confident about the pitch or resonance of their voice. I will help you find centering and authenticity to your voice. We may work with the body, the breath, resonance & pitch to enhance pitch & tone and to find presence and gravitas in the voice.
Vocal Strength & Stamina
You can’t afford to lose your voice.
Your voice is your sound identity. Perhaps you feel like you are always losing your voice, or you are gasping for air when speaking. Or maybe you’ve been told you’re too quiet. Vocal training can develop strength and stamina in your voice, so you never lose your voice again.
Breath Freedom & Control
Have you ever thought about your breath?
Of course not, breathing is something we all do and usually do not think about. However, many things can go wrong with breathing when we are put under pressure. This includes tension in the chest, taking too small or large of breaths, loss of breath stamina, or creating an overall breathy or even harsh voice.
Through body & breath exercises, you can find a new freedom to your breathing, even when under pressure. We may also work on matching the breath to the length of thought so that you can speak fluidly and with ease.
Clarity in English
Be understood everywhere you go.
I don’t want to reduce your accent, I want you to speak English with ease. Together we train the sound changes, oral posture, and the music of English. Mastery of these three areas vastly improves fluency and ease in speech.
