I’ve been working with Tom for the past 5 years...
from his Estill Voice Training intensives, to his "Belt for Days" classes, to then coaching me through the material for my callback and final audition for & Juliet on Broadway to rehearsing for the cast album at his Hudson Valley estate.
Tom is an expert in anything related to the voice and creating sound. Because of his vast knowledge, I feel so safe with him. He really gets it and he’s able to translate and communicate in such a way that I understand my voice and my body better as an actor and singer. Thank you Tom!!
