“Lisa is intelligent, insightful and is a superb communicator. She listens, observes, and thinks, with the feeling and touch of a talented singer, songwriter and teacher. It is her ability and desire to connect to people, their dreams, their joy and their pain, and her ability to create a learning environment that is challenging yet secure that makes her an exceptional teacher.”

“Before working with Lisa, I hadn’t sung since childhood and felt nervous and unconfident in my adult voice. Now I’m exploring all types of music, singing for friends and family, and I’ve even joined a band. Lisa helped me move past my nerves and find my voice again and I’m genuinely enjoying singing for the first time in years.Thank you so much for encouraging me and supporting my singing goals. I've always appreciated how you have encouraged me to try any song!! ”

“The teaching you provided, as well as the voice warm-up cds I took from our lessons, have really been life-changing on so many levels. I can't thank you enough...deepest gratitude for your help on my path to healing and self-liberation.”
Celestine A'duende, New Orleans
“Lisa helped me find my voice and gave me the tools I need to use my voice at it’s best. Working with her gave me the confidence I needed to perform in front of an audience and truly enjoy the process of making music.”
Suzee Brooks
"As someone who never made so much as a squeak in public or private, taking singing lessons was quite a daunting undertaking. With Lisa's help I have built up an interesting repertoire of songs and I have been able to enjoy giving an occasional private performance for those near and dear - something I would never have dreamed of doing before I met Lisa.
Lisa helped me to find my voice and I have no hesitation in recommending Lisa to anyone else who wants to find theirs."
Rena E. Smith, Lakeway Texas
