Singing & Gender-Affirming Voice

“What is most essential is that lessons are a safe space for the student to explore who they are and the musician they want to become. I provide them with exercises and guidance to help them explore creativity they never knew existed.”

“10/10 Would Recommend! Working with Quinn at Wholetone Academy has been an absolute delight – I can’t recommend them enough. I had never taken voice lessons before, so I was a bit nervous. I reached out to Quinn specifically because I’m queer and I was interesting in their gender-affirming voice lessons. I felt safe working with them right away. Quinn is an incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable educator who helped me feel more confident in both my speaking and singing voices. Thanks again, Quinn! And thank you Wholetone Academy for your generous scholarship opportunities that make these experiences more accessible!”

“Quinn is an excellent teacher who incorporates many different approaches to vocal pedagogy into their work. I was always learning something new either about the voice or a new technique to elicit better sound from my voice. They are encouraging and easy to work with, and provide good feedback on what could be improved in a respectful and friendly manner.
They are knowledgeable on how transition impacts the voice, and are also sensitive to the needs of trans voices. They provide a pleasant, safe, and nurturing learning environment in which to grow one’s voice. I feel much more confident in my singing than when I started, and feel like I have learned a great deal about my voice and myself in the process. I would highly recommend studying with Quinn!”
