About Layla
As the daughter of a musician, I have been a performer my whole life and began vocal training at a young age. For years I sang in choirs, fronted bands, and lived an active musical life, but in 2015 I had a wake-up call that shifted my perspective on my relationship with my voice. At the time, I was teaching back-to-back music classes, had a busy live performance schedule, frequent rehearsals, and active social life. I was feeling vocally invincible, but when I started losing my upper-most range I knew something was not right. I was diagnosed with vocal nodules due primarily to overuse and unhealthy life practices. After 2 months of therapy and vocal rest, I came out of the experience with fresh eyes, a newly refined skill set, and a newfound love and appreciation for my instrument. In the aftermath of my "vocal awakening," as I call it, I have worked diligently and passionately to develop an in-depth understanding of the physical, mental and emotional demands on vocalists. My goal as an educator is to impart this knowledge to my students in order to gain higher levels of mastery of their instruments. Through customized practice regimes, I work with each student individually to help develop technique, vocal control, artistry, performance skills, and ultimately, to reach their desired goals.

"Layla is a great voice teacher! She has a depth of knowledge that allows her to find just the right way to explain technique in a way that is clear and effective. She helped me conquer my very rough transition from head to chest voice in just one lesson. I highly recommend her!" ~Joanna M.
My name is Layla and I am a performer, vocalist, songwriter, and teacher. I have a background in jazz, pop, soul, musical theater, indie rock, folk, and gospel. As a teacher, my primary focus is to help students discover new sounds and sensations in their voices and become excited about using their instruments in a healthy way.
In these strange, isolated times, our ways of musical engagement have indeed shifted, but they have not disappeared. At this moment in time, I believe we’ve been given an opportunity to focus on self-care, nurturing, and growth. Especially when it comes to the voice. Whether you are a hobbyist looking to learn more about technique and vocal control, a professional performer looking to increase vocal stamina and range, a teacher in need of some tips and tricks for long days of lessons, or just a music lover wanting to learn more about your own built-in instrument, now is a perfect time to reconnect with your voice and, in doing so, discover a new part of yourself.
I give voice lessons, but can also help you improve your abilities in:
– sight-reading
– aural/ear training
– basic music theory
– rhythm guitar accompaniment
– songwriting craft
