"There is no one more passionate about vocal pedagogy than Lisa, and her enthusiasm is contagious. She lives and breathes it, and in doing so, has learned a wealth of knowledge useful to any teacher. She has perfected the verbiage to achieve efficient and speedy results with your students. Making the “mystery” of support crystal clear. After incorporating her Voiceworks Technique, I have seen students drastically improve in their understanding of how to properly support their voice and achieve the results they are looking for."
Carly Oates
"It was such a pleasure finally getting to meet you, and learn from you. I enjoyed the workshop immensely. Thank you so much for your generous spirit and willingness to share all that you know. You are a gift!"

“Decades ago, during thyroid surgery, my vocal cords were damaged and I’ve had a weak, hoarse voice ever since. I met Lisa who told me she could help. I was skeptical but agreed to have a session with her. We worked together for half an hour. During that time, she had me do exercises that seemed strange at the time but ultimately produced results that amazed me. I left that short session with a stronger, more powerful voice! I couldn't believe my ears! Lisa truly knows her stuff. She has a depth of knowledge that helped me improve my voice when nothing else I'd tried ever did. She's a genius! Thank you Lisa!”
Brandi Centeno
"Thank you so much for the life-changing experience this weekend. It's worth at least $1200 and you would still be giving more than we're paying. You just poured all your genius into us and we are so lucky and blessed. I want to book a lesson right away. But we want to thank you so much--(actually we can't thank you enough)! Love and sincere thanks forever.”
Jill Jaxx & Jan Bunker
