Hi, I’m Marnie!
I’m a professional actor and vocal coach in the Seattle area.
With years of voice training in the performing arts, I wanted to bring the skills I have learned to help other trans people in my community. After studying voice work with the The Fitzmaurice Voice Institute, and acting at The American Musical and Dramatic Academy, I decided to move back to the PNW to pursue a career in gender affirming vocal technique. I have since acquired trans voice teacher certification from Seattle Voice Lab.
Voice training can be a daunting prospect. I want to create a space for exploration and ultimately, help you find a voice that feels right for you.
My Approach
After a brief consultation, and vocal health assessment, we will dive into the first lessons on your journey to find your voice.
To start, we will review the fundamentals of breath. From breath, we will build all other elements of vocal production.
We will review the most common techniques to acheive the desired vocal fold thickness and level of resonance.
Finally, we will review how vocal prosody plays a role in reading as your desired gender, and fine tune the techniques we have learned to craft a voice you are proud to use.
