About Hilary
My motto: "Everything starts with the way we think and our perception. I specifically devote time teaching techniques and tools that help strengthen the mind and improve self-esteem. Singing can be a vulnerable space and when a singer can stand in their power and believe in themselves…this is where the true magic happens." I am a professional singer and I've done everything from release an album to go on tour. I’ve been teaching for 11 years and singing for 20+. I love teaching people to do what I am most passionate about ~ which is singing. It is very rewarding to witness my students improve as singers/musicians and that is why I continue to teach. I welcome beginners and pros. We can have a phone consult to address your specific needs and make your lesson plan according to those needs.

During lessons, I teach exercises to help develop your voice. As I observe your singing, I develop a lesson plan that fits your particular voice and give you specific things to work on when we are not in lessons. We meet bi-weekly in hour sessions and I also provide coursework/exercises for you to work on outside of class. When we meet for class we work on particular songs and I guide you through developing your voice for those songs while also continuing to supply exercises for you to maintain while we are not in class. I also hold space for you to work through any fears, or psychological blocks around your voice and build self-esteem/confidence. Some students have even gone as far as to say that our sessions are like "music therapy" because there is often a lot of psychological unpacking to do around the voice and I am always an advocate for holding space for that.

Hilary has been my vocal coach for the past 2.5 years. She is a phenomenal teacher and coach. She’s helped me with all aspects of singing and performing. She’s been invaluable in supporting me achieve my goals. Highly recommended!
I started taking lessons with Hilary a couple months ago, and I highly recommend her as an instructor. She’s very knowable and gives me a lot of freedom to choose what I want to work on, and she’s able to find exercises quickly to help me improve whatever we’re focusing on for a particular song. I’m amazed sometimes at the ways a simple conceptual shift she suggests can immediately have a big effect on tone. I’ve definitely already noticed a difference in how I sing and feel like my range has expanded, and I feel more confident with my ability to get better with practice. I love the convenience of video lessons and I feel like we’re able to accomplish the lesson well in that format.
Before I worked with Hilary, I had trouble singing a song all the way through. I knew I had some talent, but I didn’t know why I couldn’t sustain my voice or how to get better. I worked with Hil for maybe… 5 or 6 sessions? My time with her was absolutely priceless and *completely* changed my ability to sustain my voice and power. Skills I will have forever.
She is so easy to work with and teaches just the right amount of “traditional” techniques and “be your own artist” freedoms. She’s just awesome with the best heart and practical lessons.
Highly highly recommended.i found hilary on craigslist and worked with her once a week for six months. she’s an awesome human and a great teacher. her voice coaching helped me find the confidence to sing the songs i’ve written and share them with the world. her approach was laid-back and empowering. she really understands how to meet a vocalist where they are and give them the tools to improve.
Hilary is a wonderful vocal coach and teacher. In the 1.5 years I have been working with her, I have become more confident in my singing and even joined an adult choir! She is helpful, flexible, talented, knowledgeable, and kind. I highly recommend working with Hilary!
