38% of perception is through vocal tone alone! That’s why a carefully trained speaking voice is absolutely vital for “professional voice users”. Whether you are creating a dynamic power-point presentation, preparing for a public speaking event, polishing up an audition or just wanting to improve your voice, you can benefit from Vocal Coaching for executives, actors and curious humans.
For Executives
Pamela’s approach to the corporate client is based on 15 years of experience in “actor training for the executive.” She helps her clients:
- define the message and communication goals
- learn to communicate from an authentic place to achieve what they desire
- expand awareness of and ability to understand their “home-base” vocal posture and make the adjustments necessary (pitch, placement, pacing, melody) to find the sound they are working to achieve
- create, rehearse and perfect personal scripts based on actual business scenarios
- become more comfortable in their “roles” and use adrenaline to fuel a fantastic performance
Pamela has worked with clients from varied international backgrounds including: Japan, Korea, India, China, Sweden, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, Switzerland, Turkey, France, Spain, Cuba and Mexico. She has worked with executives from AT&T, The Carlyle Group, Barclays Capital, Bear Sterns, CARE.com, HonestTea, Wood Creek Capital, 3M, The Rainmaker Consulting Group, Information Builders and David Yurman Jewelers to help them enhance and strengthen vocal and presentational skills.
“Pamela has been terrific. As I move to a more senior and client-facing role within my organization I felt the need to improve…Pamela has strong expertise and she tailored the program specifically to my needs. Very creative at using scripts, mock meetings, etc. to simulate my real life. I strongly recommend her.”

Curious Humans
Pamela works with compassion to help her clients discover their voice and express themselves authentically. Whether in a one-on-one setting or a workshop, she guides each person with a sensitive and thoughtful touch.
“I have loved working with Pamela. I had no idea what to expect, and what I have learned has touched on so many aspects of my life…I am not a natural performer, but Pamela has given me the tools that I need so that I no longer suffer from stage fright, and am able to fulfill my duties on a podium with an ease that I would not have expected several years ago.”
