Alli - Get to know your vocal coach

Hi! I’m Alli, a passionate singing coach with 16 years of vocal training and three decades of performing experience. I’ve competed nationally in adjudicated competitions and performed in musicals, choirs, weddings, and jazz clubs. I work with students from beginners to intermediates across styles like musical theatre, classical, and more. I’ve sung in English, Italian, French, and German. Each lesson is tailored to your unique goals, whether you’re discovering your voice or refining it. I help students develop stage presence, build confidence, and use their body to support their voice. Together, we balance solid technique, music theory, and a fun, encouraging atmosphere. When you step into a lesson, you’ll feel supported, challenged, and inspired. In each session, we might warm up with fun vocal exercises, explore your favorite songs, and break down techniques step by step. I celebrate every milestone, no matter how small, because each step forward matters. I also encourage creativity, letting you experiment with styles or even songwriting if you’re interested. Together, we’ll not just sing—we’ll craft a vocal journey that’s uniquely yours, full of growth, fun, and music.
