Introduction
I have both a broad and a deep background. Studies include an M.A. in Music (voice), four years with a Garcia Marchesi master, work with Speech Level singing top masters, and years with an unorthodox teacher who fixed vocal problems the other two had been unable to address (or had themselves caused). From the different techniques I have amassed tools to address most every vocal challenge, and I have been able to pick which tool works the fastest and with the best long-term success with which type of student. I have also added insights gleaned from my own performing and teaching, such as how to simultaneously train the mind for much more rapid learning, and tips to accelerate progress. I also approach singing from the perspective as a performer and songwriter, who has had my share of challenges with poor teachers and bad habits. I understand where most singers are coming from, having stood there myself. I also make sure lessons are enjoyable and inspiring. Lessons are fun both for myself and for my students because I genuinely enjoy what I am doing, and am cheering you on. Sharing the gift of music is a joy. Sharing the ability to communicate through song. I often have people come into my studio after years of wishing they could sing, and I facilitate that wish coming true. The younger students give me the privilege of starting them off well for a life song.

I've been a full time touring singer/songwriter for years and although I get lots of praise for my voice, I've always felt it could be better. Merrill saw me perform in Los Angeles and was able to point out exactly what I thought might be happening with my voice already. Since I've started working with Merrill via Skype (I live in Atlanta), my understanding of my own voice and what it can do has gone to a new level. I'm learning things that, I feel, will take me from being a pretty good singer who is resting on what he can get by with naturally to being a real vocalist. I'm excited to find out what my full potential is and it's with her guidance that I will get there. She's a blast to work with and nothing gets past her. If you want to improve and have fun doing it, you should get in touch with her ASAP :)

Merrill has a very relaxed and comfortable approach to singing. It has been a breath of fresh air to study with her and I feel a sense of connectedness with the new way of opening my voice.

Is there any way htat I could give Merril 10 stars? If there was, I'd surely do it! I've been working with Merrill for a while, and she has helped me move from a tentative novice to a full-fledged confident performer. With each lesson, I leave with a better understanding of my voice and what I need to do to be the best that I can be. Thank you, Merrill!
