ABOUT ME​
Hi, I'm Leanne. I am a huge fan of singing. HUGE. It's possible that the only thing I love more than singing is the feeling of helping a frustrated singer unlock their voice. As a neuro-diverse vocalist myself, I find such beauty in the connection between the voice and the unique brain and body in which it lives. Whether it's through an individual lesson, a group rehearsal, or an intentionally crafted choral composition, I take great delight in helping people find a healthy and supported way to sing.​​​
