Who Is This For?
Record Your Special Occasion Speech
Want to deliver a heartfelt speech at your child’s wedding or a loved one’s milestone birthday, but worried about nerves or a speech impairment getting in the way?

Why Work With Me?
I bring a rare combination of qualifications to this work. Before becoming a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist, I had a professional career in acting — which gave me first-hand understanding of voice projection, stage presence, and performance under pressure.
That means your coaching is grounded in both the science of speech and voice, and the practical art of connecting with an audience. It’s a combination you won’t find in a typical public speaking course.
