I HAVE BEEN TEACHING ON AND OFF IN DIFFERENT CAPACITIES ALONGSIDE PERFORMING FOR TWENTY YEARS. SOUNDBODY STUDIO EMERGED OUT OF MY CERTIFICATION IN APPLIED POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY,  WHICH I INITITIATED IN AN EFFORT TO BECOME A MORE EFFECTIVE PARENT AND HAPPIER MOTHER. WHAT I DISCOVERED WAS A MARRIAGE BETWEEN MY CREATIVITY, SPIRITUAL ASPIRATIONS AND ACADEMIC CURIOSITY. ALONG WITH MOTHERHOOD AND THE PERFORMING ARTS, I KNEW THERE WAS AN UNTAPPED INTEREST IN PSYCHOLOGY, NEUROSCIENCE, AND THE SCIENCE OF RESILIENCE THAT REQUIRED MY FURTHER ATTENTION. MOST ORGANICALLY AND THROUGH TEACHING AT ON THE MIC TRAINING IN VANCOUVER, I DISCOVERED A PASSION FOR ONE-ON-ONE AND SMALL GROUP INSTRUCTION. I BEGAN WORKING WITH CORPORATE CLIENTS AND THOSE SUFFERING FROM PUBLIC SPEAKING ANXIETY AND VOCAL FATIGUE AND INHIBITION. FROM THERE I BEGAN COACHING ACTORS AND PROFESSIONAL SPEAKERS. 

​

IT IS A JOY AND HONOUR TO WORK HANDS-ON WITH PEOPLE TO HELP THEM DISCOVER GREATER PRESENCE AND  TREMENDOUS JOY TO WORK WITH PEOPLE TO ACHIEVE, CLEARER MORE RESONANT SPEECH AND MORE EFFECTIVE, NON-VIOLENT COMMUNICATION.
