For 20+ years, I’ve helped clients around the world – business professionals, public figures, actors/entertainers – speak clear and confident English. I’m a speech coach, and I specialize in accent reduction (pronunciation), dialect coaching, and presentation skills training.My work is a true labor of love. I’m inspired when my clients capture the spotlight, speak at engagements, or take on greater leadership roles. I celebrate with my actor clients when they land or shine in a role with an authentic dialect of English or Spanish! My services include: Accent Reduction (accent modification/English pronunciation). I empower non-native and native English speakers to increase their clarity and confidence at work or in the public eye. I customize sessions to fit my clients’ needs/goals. HR, L&D, and DEI leaders entrust me because of my sensitive approach, respecting my clients’ unique identities and cultures.My clients quickly and efficiently develop a neutral-sounding pronunciation that allows them to communicate successfully in public, professional, and social settings. When it comes to pronunciation, my motto is “Accents Speak Louder Than Words”! Dialect Coaching - I empower actors to learn authentic-sounding standard or regional English and Spanish dialects to rock an audition and elevate their performance. Without coaching, actors might find unreliable sources as a reference. My approach takes the guess-work and toil out of learning a dialect. I use authentic materials and develop custom resources. I mark up scripts to help clients master the sounds of any dialect.Presentation Skills / Interview Training – Executives, leaders, and public figures can feel uncomfortable or anxious in front of an audience during presentations, networking, or job/college interviews. I help my clients meet their fears head on and redirect their energy to captivate audiences and make an impact. We review best practices for Zoom, the podium, or the stage. My clients learn to pace themselves and speak intentionally. My clients deliver superstar keynote speeches, panel discussions, and high-stakes presentations to prospective clients/investors/shareholders. Many clinch job offers, become leaders, or strengthen their public persona as industry thought leaders. Additional Services – Tests of English - I help students and foreign nationals prepare for various English assessments, such as the TOEFL and TOEIC with an emphasis on the speaking/oral section of the tests.Spanish Pronunciation - I assist non-native Spanish speakers to deliver speeches en español.
