MY SERVICES
Speech | Voice | Accents
I enhance client confidence and connectedness through the power of speech, voice and accent.
Our speech connects us with the world and shapes how others perceive us. Speech, voice and accent work together in that process. Yet these skills are often learned indirectly and superficially, and we fail to achieve the impact our message deserves.
My coaching transforms individuals wanting to enhance their expression through speech, voice, and accent training specialized to their unique needs and gifts. My coaching methods begin with the client’s specific goals and are tailored to their unique talents and needs.
