I LOVE Michele. I've had a lot of experience singing and performing over the years, often paid, and I am still learning SO much from her. I expected to dive right into "fixing" my singing problems, but she is really laying a grounded and centered foundation with me. Especially for finding my best voice, not the one I think I "should" have. And relaxing everything about singing. Plus she's just so dang friendly and welcoming!

Michelle is a warm and engaging individual who listens to what I want out of my lessons then provides expert coaching. Recaps the lesson at the end so I know what to work on. Lover her style and skill!

I've been training with Michele for the past few months, and it has been quite a unique and rewarding journey so far! Her commitment and desire for her student's progress is strong, and in a short amount of time she has helped me look at and work with my vocal instrument in ways I never have before. Professional, highly skilled and knowledgeable, intuitive, great sense of humor and warm spirit.

I attribute my singing career to Michele. She was my very first singing teacher. She pointed me in the right direction when I got my first choir solo as a teenager in church and remained as a member to help support me several years later when I became the director of that same choir. She created our our former a Capella group where I did my first TV voice performances (and my first recorded album) and she's responsible for creating a musical environment that inspired me to attend conservatory and graduate with a degree in music. Thanks sis!

Michele is awesome and she knows her craft. Her style of teaching puts you at ease where you can train at your best. She will critique your voice, give positive feedback and provide you with corrective techniques to improve. She will even coach you on caring for your voice so you can soar far beyond what you ever thought possible. From my first lesson, I knew I had the perfect instructor.

Michele is a true talent and a dedicated music teacher and performer. She is well-experienced in the music business, and has remained positive throughout the years in all of her music endeavors. She's a benevolent and virtuous PRO, and I always look forward to her joyful dedication, in and out of the music room.

After being in a singing group with this super talented songbird for a couple years, I strongly endorse Michele. Her patience is probably her greatest strength. She has a great "ear" for music as well.With an uncanny sense of humor and a tranquil setting in which to learn, I ferociously recommend .

Michele is a superb teacher. Her own musical knowledge and abilities are extensive, so she can use varieties of approaches to get specific results. She teaches good technique for breathing and singing so that we can make our best sound and not damage our vocal cords.I absolutely recommend her.

Michele is a fabulous singer and a wonderful human being! While I don't have experience with her as a teacher, I enjoyed working with her as an artist and colleague and her singing definitely demonstrates her knowledge of the vocal instrument. As a person she is friendly, personable, thoughtful and encouraging of all those around her. We worked together on an inter-generational theater production and she was an inspiration to all involved.

An excellent singing teacher - highly skilled, patient and kindMichele believes in serving her students. Her purpose and focus are on helping you achieve your singing goals - whether you want to sing on stage, in your choir or in your home. She is patient and gentle and her ears are exceptional! She can hear what you are doing "wrong" and can instantly find ways to help you fix it. She combines exercises and work on songs to help you improve your voice. In addition, her long vocal career and varied singing experiences make her the perfect instructor for beginners and advanced singers alike. I highly recommend her!
