Do you have the worst luck auditioning for musicals? Go from being cut from auditions to getting more callbacks by having better songs in your audition book (and a voice that sounds good).

Ready to Stop Getting “No”s? Let’s Change That.

If you’re tired of pouring your heart into auditions only to walk away empty-handed, you're not alone—and you don't have to keep spinning your wheels. Whether your cuts aren’t landing, your song choices are falling flat, or you’re just not showing the full range of what you can do, there is a way forward.


I work with performers just like you to refine your audition package, elevate your technique, and tell powerful stories that stick. Rejection doesn’t mean you’re not talented—it means it’s time to sharpen your tools.

Let’s turn those “thank yous” into callbacks.



Book a session with me and let’s get to work.
