Hello!

It may be Fall somewhere but it doesn't quite feel like it yet - here in Houston, Texas, does it? This month will bring some change to my coaching availabiltiy although I am not so sure about the weather!

I will be away from the studio from September 16th - 19th at the See Change: Entrepreneurs Conference in Vermont. We are discussing Arts and Entrepreneurship and specifically how to make it accessible and viable in underserved communities in the US. Fun and poignant topics for each of us as we are all independent business owners as actors and voice actors. Looking forward to sharing our artist's perspective with a broad spectrum of changemakers and agencies throughout the US!

FYI: Did you know September is National Voice Over Month? We get a whole month dedicated to our Voice Over passions, careers, our journey! How will you move your VO career forward this month?

Here's a little bit of VO coach wisdom for you as we celebrate VO month.

Working with me you know that we focus on identifying your top three vocal genres. I firmly believe that when you try do everything - you accomplish nothing. It is nearly impossible to focus on VO as a whole and not feel overwhelmed. (If you are feeling this way, its normal. And you are not alone.) There are so many different types of VO, how do you choose ?! Well you choose with intention. Pick one this month, okay maybe 2 if you're feeling especially motivated, and choose a different one next month. You can work on improving your voice in a specific genre and hone in on the specifics. What is the genre you want to focus on this month?

• Commercial
• Political
• Animation
• Audiobook
• Corporate Narration
• Video Games

Do your research, record yourself practicing, and then....listen.

Know that I am rooting for your success and can't wait to see all the great work you do this year!

Please remeber that due to my travel this month - there will not be as many coaching sessions available - make sure to book your sessions in advance to stay on track with your progress.

Have a great September!
