About Monica
I was born and raised in Montgomery, Alabama with a dream of becoming an actress. I had to do a lot of work on my voice and my accent. Thank goodness I discovered Arthur Lessac's work, the "Stanislavski" of voice, speech, singing and movement in the training world!
Through my Lessac training, I achieved an easy, fun and healthy way to project, expand my vocal range and clean up my diction. I also created a way to use Lessac's work to help others to achieve a Standard American Accent.
Now I am a Certified Lessac Trainer and I've been working with Actors and Professionals for over 30 years to improve their speaking voices, American English pronunciation and desired theatrical accents.

What do we do in class?
We identify the optimal placement of the lips, tongue and teeth.
We explore all of the consonant and vowel sounds of the American Accent.
We will learn how to make connections between words, phrases and sentences in order to develop an American speaking cadence or pattern of speaking.
We explore both optimal pronunciation and "sloppy" or "casual" American pronunciation.
