There are some things you teach…and some things a student just “has” 🎙️✨

From the first time I worked on voiceover with her, I knew this was one of those things. The character choices, the timing, the storytelling—it comes so naturally to her.

I had the privilege of helping her prep for Magna Tales and now we finally get to hear her bring it to life!

Voiceover is NOT easy. Making it sound this effortless is a skill all its own.

So proud of you, superstar. 🤍🎙️

Here’s a little peek at her first episode of Magna-Tales. Find the whole episode on YouTube!

Hear the potential early. ✨
A sound. A little spark. An instinct. Something that makes me think, there’s more in there.
But recognizing potential is the easy part.
What they choose to do with it is up to them.
I first worked with her in 2022, singing behind a screen during those COVID-era lessons. She was little. Her voice was little.
But there was something there.
Four years later, as she’s about to turn 14, what you’re hearing isn’t simply a voice that got bigger because she got older.
She built this.💪
She showed up. She practiced. She listened. She trusted the process. She kept working—even when there wasn’t a role, callback, or booking waiting at the end of it.
We celebrate our singers when they book the show. And we should.
But I think we need to celebrate this, too.
The singers who keep growing their voices simply because they love to sing, without knowing yet where that voice might take them.
I can recognize the potential.
I can give them the tools.
But what they do with it? That’s theirs. 🤍

Her jaw was locking as she sang higher — but the jaw may not actually be the problem. 🎤
At 14, part of our work is building a stronger, freer head voice and better coordination through her registers — without carrying unnecessary vocal weight upward.
In this phrase, as the demand increased, she began recruiting her jaw for stability.
So we released the TMJ.
Listen to the immediate difference. 👀
But here’s what matters:
Jaw tension can be a symptom.
Breath/pressure coordination, too much vocal weight, volume, tongue tension, vowel choices or simply habit can all contribute.
So I don’t just want to tell a singer:
“Relax your jaw.”
I want to know:
WHY did her voice think it needed that tension?
Because tension is information — and figuring out what the system is compensating for is where the real work begins.

Why would I make a singer sound BRATTY to make her belt better? 🎤👀
Because when a high note isn’t working, more effort isn’t always the answer.
On her first attempt, she was pushing for the note. So instead of telling her to sing louder, I changed two things:
1. The quality — I gave her a bratty, twang sound. there is a science for this!
2. The vowel — we modified the vowel to better serve the note.
That exaggerated “bratty” quality isn’t necessarily how I want her to perform the song. It’s a tool to help her find a more efficient coordination and stop trying to manufacture power by pushing.
Then we can refine it.
Listen to the difference when she goes back into the phrase. 👀
Same singer. Same note. Less push. More power.
That’s why sometimes I’ll ask a singer to make an “ugly” sound before we make it pretty. 😉

🎤 Would you want me to make a vowel modification cheat sheet with some of the vowel changes I use forbelt + mix? if i get interest i’ll share!

So why did “set the plate DOWN” work? ↓

Listen to the first attempt on the word “door.”

She already had the note. And she already had the mix.

The problem wasn’t that she needed more support, more volume, or a completely different register. The problem was the extra effort her body was adding as she approached the pitch.

As the note went UP, her body wanted to reach UP with it — creating unnecessary tension around a coordination that was already there.

So we changed two things:

1. We adjusted the vowel.
I slightly modified “door” toward a more neutral vowel shape. On higher pitches, small vowel adjustments can change the acoustics of the vocal tract and allow the singer to maintain the desired sound with less effort.

2. We changed the physical intention.
Instead of thinking HIGH = UP, I gave her the cue:

“Set the plate DOWN.” ↓

That downward gesture acted as a counter-kinesthetic cue. It gave her brain a different motor intention and helped interrupt the physical habit of reaching for the pitch.

And here’s the important part:

She didn’t flip into a thin head mix to get there.

She maintained the chest-dominant, speech-like mix-belt quality we want for this contemporary musical theatre sound.

We didn’t take away the power.

We took away some of the friction.

Same singer.
Same note.
Same sound goal.
More efficient coordination.

Sometimes the answer to a high note isn’t MORE.

Sometimes it’s teaching the body to stop fighting what the voice already knows how to do.
✨Should I make you guys a Vowel Modification Cheat Sheet? 👀
Comment VOWEL if you’d want one. ↓

You know the fact that I’m this quiet should have been her first clue. 😂

What she didn’t know was that I was texting with her mom behind the scenes, trying to figure out if I was FINALLY allowed to tell her…

She booked ANNIE.⭐️a dream role of hers since she was young.
Then when finally allowed they sent me the video of her finding out.
There are a lot of things I love about what I do, but getting to be a small part of moments like this will never get old.
So incredibly proud of you. You are a force in this business and truly deserve this opportunity. now…the work begins..well continues. 😬❤️🎭

I will always care about the technique—the coordination, placement, airflow and every small adjustment that creates a healthier, stronger sound.
But students don’t make transformations like this through technique alone. They also need to feel safe enough to make an imperfect sound. To laugh when something feels strange. And to trust the process long enough for the new coordination to become theirs.
✨Technique gave her the tools.
✨Confidence gave her permission to use them.
But this transformation was all her. She just needed a little help seeing what she was capable of.
I absolutely loved working with her. Her natural ability to hear and feel the music is on a completely different level—and this transformation? Major. 🤍
Congratulations on winning Talent! But I think discovering what your voice is truly capable of may have been the biggest prize of all.
So proud of you! 🙌💕

At just 10 years old... and only her second lesson 🔥
One of the biggest challenges for young singers is finding a brighter, more projected sound without pushing or straining.
In this lesson, we used playful vocal cues like:
👶 “Wah-wah!”
🚕 “Hey, TAXI!”
These aren’t random games—they’re purposeful tools that help some singers find healthier vocal placement and resonance.
✔️ There is no one-size-fits-all exercise.
✔️What works for one student may do absolutely nothing for another.
✔️Technique should always be tailored to the individual singer.

One of my favorite moments to witness. 🤍
You can actually see the exact second a performer stops worrying about getting it right and starts trusting themselves.
That’s when the personality comes out.
That’s when the story comes alive.
That’s when performing becomes joyful.
Performing freely isn’t about having the biggest voice.
It’s about having the confidence to let people see you.
As she grows, her voice will continue to develop. But moments like this are what excite me most. Because when strong technique is built alongside genuine confidence, something really special happens.
Technique gives you the foundation.
Confidence gives you the freedom.
And when those two come together...
✨ Magic happens.

The curtain closes on this chapter, but the story is far from over. Stay tuned. ✨
In just 3½ days, these campers learned a full script, songs, choreography, character development, and what it means to support one another on and off the stage. ✨
This year’s motto was: “Embrace the corny, and it won’t be so corny.” 🤍
The magic happens when you step outside your comfort zone, take risks, cheer each other on, and discover what you’re capable of. We couldn’t be prouder of these performers. 🎭🎶
