POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I booked the lead in my first Broadway show at 26…
without living in NYC, being in Equity, or having a ton of credits.

My path wasn’t typical — and that’s exactly why it worked.

I didn’t have the résumé.
I didn’t have the “perfect” technique.
But I had something real:
a voice connected to truth, storytelling, joy and presence.

And that’s what gets people hired.

If you want to develop the kind of voice that cuts through the noise — onstage, onscreen, or in the room — I’d love to help you get there.

DM me “VOICE” for coaching availability, or tap the link in my bio.

You never plan to go full out.
But then the strings come in…
…and your body remembers who the hell you are.
🎤 I help singers, speakers, and voice-first professionals unlock that kind of presence — without the panic, without the push.
DM me “READY” and I’ll send you a warm-up to help you feel in flow.

Sometimes the simplest songs carry the biggest truths.

In my house we say “when in doubt, focus out”. Wanna make your day better? Make someone else’s day better.

Try it and report back.

Big thanks to Comden and Green for this wisdom for the ages. Jule Styne with a gorgeous melody.

@markabulous on keys with a Fred Barton arrangement.

What a beautiful evening singing “Make Someone Happy” from Do Re Mi at Band Together!

A huge thank you to Band Together and James Barbour for having me be part of such a special night, raising money to help young people aging out of the foster care system pursue their dreams.

A beautiful cause, wonderful people, and a reminder of what music can do when we come together. ❤️

Are we going backwards?

Object permanence is the ability to understand that people and objects still exist, even when you cannot see, hear, or touch them.

it’s so easy to put people in the same place you last saw them. How about next time instead of judging them as the limited version you remember, get curious and even if you don’t want to get too, curious, how about hold them to a higher version than the one you remember?

Just like you’ve changed, they probably have as well. just like you have experienced joy, they may have too. Just like you may have experienced loss (and I hope you haven’t) they may have too. Just like you’ve learned so have they. That mayor may not be true, but if we’re talking golden rule, here, they, just as you, deserve the space to be who they are now. by @thejamessnyder

Putting in the work and having a ride along the way. 🎶⚡️

Press call throwback for In Transit with Margo @margo_seibert . Honored to have shared the stage and locked in those harmonies with such a relentless crew.

Nothing hits like that moment when the work is done. 🎭⚡️

Curtain call at opening night of Dangerous Beauty at Pasadena Playhouse. Loved stepping into this world, leaving it all on stage, and standing alongside a powerhouse cast.

Sometimes the greatest songs from awesome shows don’t get a chance to be performed on a stage (yet). But they are always fun to take out for a spin

Thanks @marcyandzina for penning the song, @gaballgreen and @jencrittenden with the book

Thanks @michaelorland for playing @elportaltheatre by @thejamessnyder
