About
Discover your authentic voice with an expert vocal coach:
I am a Seattle-based performer, songwriter, musician, and educator. I am skilled in establishing a safe space for trauma-sensitive voice lessons, refining vocal technique, and building vocal stamina, helping singers revamp their repertoire and love what they sing. I teach students how to strengthen and develop their natural gifts to free the voice within. Singing is a fine motor skill, and I believe anyone can learn to sing!
Singing time consists of voice warming, technique-focused exercises, repertoire tuning, and artistry finesse. Admin time is spent emailing you any necessary tools, info, exercises, and assignments for the week.

Even though I’ve only had a few sessions with Holly, I’ve learned so much already. Her teaching style is encouraging, insightful, and easy to follow. I highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have taken lessons with Holly for almost 10 years now. She has adapted to my learning style and enabled me to embark on an adult journey of learning piano. I am still her student, and I still look forward to my weekly lessons! She has built a super cool and supportive community of musicians as well.

I've been taking piano lessons with Holly for over two years now. She is patient, kind, and incredibly supportive. She also has great insticts for musical performance, which I've found to be a highly beneficial skill to learn. I would recommend her lessons to anyone looking to get started on their musical journey!

I decided to take the leap to learn piano as an adult student. Holly has been amazing since day 1! I’ve been able to play classical, jazz, pop, and even country. She is always receptive to letting me play what I want to play, but is there to also provide grade-appropriate pieces that I would never be able to find on my own. Additionally, I know more about actual music theory now than I ever thought I would, which helps immensely in learning piano. Recently, I started mixing in singing lessons with piano, which Holly was very happy to help with!
