“Emily’s been our daughter’s vocal and musical theatre coach, as well as professional and personal mentor, for six years. She’s a charming, creative, motivating, warm, and nurturing talent who not only focuses on the fundamental and technical aspects of the craft, but instills and builds within her students self-confidence, resilience and determination.

Under Emily’s tutelage our daughter has blossomed into a rising star, cast in lead roles throughout her high school junior and senior year musical productions while capturing the interest of a New York City talent agent with whom she intends to sign. Emily worked closely with our daughter throughout her college audition process spending hours on selecting songs, rehearsing, and producing self-tapes.

More specifically as a vocal coach, Emily’s approach is holistic, not only concentrating on range, tone, and pitch, but breathing techniques and control, warm-up exercises, muscle memory, vibrato, posture, proper healthcare, and myriad other tools and tips. She has broadened and deepened our daughter’s appreciation for musical genres and takes keen interest in her goals and aspirations.

Paramount among Emily’s qualities is that she makes it fun! Our daughter leaves every session invigorated, smiling, and empowered.”

-The Safiers (proud parents of a rising musical theater star, Murrow alum, and senior at Muhlenburg College)

“Emily is the best vocal coach I’ve ever had. I came to Emily with a lot of baggage from past teachers who gave me complexes and crippling anxiety about my voice. Emily put me at ease right away so we could clear the anxiety, and work on technique and vocal performance. Not only did my voice improve while working with Emily, but my confidence skyrocketed. I highly , highly recommend her !!!”

-Linds Dunn (Broadway performer, international dance superstar)

“My daughter was lucky to have had Emily as a voice teacher. Aside from helping her navigate the grueling NYC school admissions process, in the brief time that she had the privilege of studying voice with Emily, my daughter developed as an artist, from her stage presence to her self esteem as a singer/songwriter. Can’t thank Emily enough!!”

-Maya (proud parent of a rising pop singer/songwriting superstar and sophomore at NYU)

“What can I say. Emily is amazing! I can’t thank her enough for all the singing and vocal technique training she has given my daughter over the years? I know that her techniques, patience and talent helped her with her acceptances to both Mark Twain School for the Gifted and Talented and Laguardia High School of Music and Arts and Performing Arts. She also helped my daughter as an incoming freshman land the role of Young Cossette in her high schools musical Les Miserables. Emily’s students are blessed to have the benefit of her talent, wisdom, sense of humor and patience. We love her!”

-Jill R. (proud parent of a Laguardia graduate and Penn State junior)

“We love Emily! She has helped our daughter (15) and son (11) with their singing (and their confidence in their singing) immeasurably. Emily is not just a teacher but also an advocate. Our daughter does more singing than our son, and we have seen both her ability and her confidence soar in the past few years during which time, thanks in large part to Emily’s help and guidance, she has recently gotten some plum parts in school (Frank Sinatra) and summer productions.”
