You have my permission to be happy

In the video below, I'm wearing my party shirt because I really want you to stop and listen to what I have to say. Isn't it so shiny?

If you have been considering modifying your voice to align better with the gender presentation that you want to put out into the world, I just want to give you permission to do that. I see a lot of students who have this feeling like changing their voice is fake or it's inauthentic, or people are going to judge them or think something about them, but I just want you to know that you have one life. You can do whatever you want with that life. And if that means you want to get a haircut or dye your hair or wear your party shirt or change your makeup or change everything about your personal style or the job you have or change your voice, you are allowed to do so.

It is not inauthentic to make choices that bring you closer to who you are. So if you needed to hear it today, you have my permission to take the steps that you need to take in order to be happy.

If you're ready to take the plunge and start working on a voice that brings you joy, check out the courses I currently have on offer.

Hi, I'm Renée! (they/them)

I'm a queer, nonbinary, and disabled singer, songwriter and gender-affirming voice teacher. 

I've been a voice teacher for over twelve years, I have four full-length albums out, and I have degrees in physics, jazz, and songwriting.

I love creating, I love figuring things out, but most of all, I love helping people.
