I understand you’re struggling and I’m here to help.

I help people who struggle with hoarseness, voice loss, vocal fatigue, discomfort and speech problems overcome their anxiety and frustration so they can feel confident about the way they sound, show up in their lives and shine.  

Unlike the conventional approach of using vocal rest, I help my clients learn how to use their voice in a healthy and sustainable way so they can have the self-confidence they need to succeed, get the job done and have the impact they dream of.

As an opera singer, performer and vocal coach I can only understand too well what it means when you have to rely on your voice constantly and the stress it causes when your voice is not showing up for you and you can’t do your job, or when you don’t feel confident speaking, because your speech is not clear and people ask you to repeat yourself constantly. 

I am a voice specialist, licensed speech-language pathologist, trained opera singer and the CEO of Speech & Voice Works. I obtained a Master of Science degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders with distinction from California State University, Northridge and hold a Certificate of Clinical Competency in Speech-Language Pathology (CCC-SLP) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). 

In my free time I enjoy music, yoga, painting, cooking and hiking. I grew up in Germany and came to the US as a young adult. Los Angeles is my much enjoyed home now. I’m fluent in German and English and I speak conversational French.

As a clinician and founder of Speech & Voice Works I strive to provide the highest standard of care in a nurturing, professional and caring environment to help you or your child meet your communication goals.

I’m very passionate about helping you improve your voice and speech, because it plays such a huge role in your life and in your level of confidence. Seeing how my clients’ lives change through our work together inspires me. When someone is confident, they can take on the world and yes, so can you!

 

I can help you meet your goals for a clear, confident and sustainable voice.
