About Susan

I have had an active vocal studio in the Watchung/Scotch Plains area for over 25 years, and I have a passion for all forms of vocal expression. I am also a licensed speech-language pathologist working with adults and children in the areas of articulation, apraxia, language and voice disorders.

Naturally, I have a particular interest in voice disorders, and I'm an expert in rehabilitating singers and/or speakers with vocal nodules and vocal quality disorders. I'm also active in accent reduction therapy and have a thriving practice in executive speech coaching and public speaking.

I am blessed with a musical ear and a gift for languages. I am fluent in four foreign languages such as French, Italian, Dutch and German, and I'm a certified English language teacher for Berlitz.

As a young singer, I was a finalist in the Cristina Deutekom International Vocal Competition of The Netherlands, the Munchner Singschule (as part of the Munchner Festspiele) and the International Opera Academy Stuttgart where I was personally chosen by Birgit Nilsson to perform in a variety of operatic concerts throughout Germany.

I was also the recipient of a full scholarship for post-graduate studies at the Stuttgart Hochschule fur Musik. I received my B.A. in Voice from Indiana University and my M.A. in Operatic Performance from the Royal Conservatory of Music in The Hague, The Netherlands where I appeared on numerous occasions under the baton of Kenneth Montgomery.

I was fortunate to have been described as having a "rich and warm timbre, solid technique and incredible vocal stamina" -- the Neuer Merker, Opera in Vienna and the World, Stuttgart edition. Following a series of operatic concerts with the Stuttgart Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bavarian State Opera Orchestra performed in the Stuttgart Liederhalle, the Baden Baden Kurhaus and the Bavarian National Opera House the critics also kindly referred to me as a "singer personality with extraordinary stage presence, an enormous vocal range, the arias appeared technically effortless and were sung with high musical intelligence" -- Badisches Tagblatt.

I have studied with such luminaries as Virginia Zeani, Nicola Rossi-Lemeni, Regina Resnick, Graziella Sciutti, James King, Astrid Varnay, Jane Bunnell, Rita Patane, Carlos Montane, Joan Dorneman, Christina Deutekom, Roberta Alexander, Reinhard Linz, Nico Castel, Werner Stiefel and Heinrich Bender.

My clients are executives, authors, lawyers, administrators of major university, singers, motivational speakers, teachers, clergy, stay-at-home moms and people just like you.
