Whether you have had many voice lessons or you are wanting to try lessons for the first time I am excited to help you find your best voice in a healthy and fun way!
My name is Mary Elizabeth and I am a professional musical theater actress and voice teacher living in New York City. I am an honor graduate of Oklahoma City University with a Bachelor of Music in Musical Theater. I have toured the United States and performed with professional theaters around the country. Some of my favorite roles include Luisa in The Fantasticks, Philia in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Belle in Beauty and the Beast, Cosette in Les Miserables, and Cinderella in Into the Woods.
My private lessons include all styles of music and vocal technique that protect and strengthen the voice. Students will also learn some basic music theory that will make learning new music much easier. Along with voice technique I help my students to express their interpretation of the music, especially in musical theater repertoire. I teach students 10 and up and have a lot of experience working with kids. No matter what your goal is the most important thing is that you are eager to learn and enjoy the process!
As someone who is currently auditioning and performing in the business I want to pass the knowledge I have gained to others. I have done "countless" auditions in my life and I love to help others prepare for auditions.
Please reach out if you have any questions all. I look forward to working with you!

Mary Elizabeth is an amazing voice teacher! She has really helped me strengthen my mix and my confidence has grown so much since working with her. She is kind and positive and makes each lesson fun while also critiquing me. She helps me recognize and feel confident in my strengths as well as improve my weaknesses. She is also very helpful with audition prep and acting through song! At the end of each lesson I feel accomplished and excited about singing.
