What I Do
Session Singing
I am able to record pro-level vocals remotely or in your studio. Pop, classical, gospel, country, rock, Spanish — my voice adapts to any genre. From Norah Jones to KT Tunstall vibes, solo or ensemble. 24+ national commercials, 18+ feature films, and counting.
Vocal Contracting
LA has more than 5,000 session singers — and I know them. As SAG-AFTRA Commercials Sub-Committee Chair, I assemble and manage the right vocal team for your project, from kids choirs to full gospel ensembles.
Private Coaching
With a degree in Music Therapy and 15+ years of performance experience, I bring a unique therapeutic approach to vocal coaching. Technique, audition prep, and the business side of singing — all in my backyard Studio C.
Listen
Vocal reels across genres — pop, gospel, classical, Spanish, rock, and more.
From Rick Rubin's Rolodex to Your Recording Session
I started as a personal assistant to Rick Rubin and Cecilia Noël, learning the industry from the inside. Fifteen years later, I’m one of the top five session singers getting the call in Los Angeles.
With a Music Therapy degree from Loyola New Orleans, SAG-AFTRA leadership on the Singers Committee, and credits on everything from Star Wars to the Super Bowl — I bring the voice, the network, and the professionalism your project needs.
I put my therapist hat on every day. In a high-stress recording environment, you need someone who makes everybody happy — the person that hired you, the client, the kids choir, and the parents.
