Quick Exit

Hi, I’m Renée!

I teach trans people to love their voice

I'm queer, nonbinary, disabled, and I love my life! ✨

Here are a few things I'm immensely proud of 

pink heart with sparkles emoji

I've taught hundreds of students over my 12-year teaching career!

CD emoji

I have four full-length albums out! (My fav songs are below)

graduation cap emoji

I have bachelor's degrees in physics and jazz, and a master's in songwriting

self-propelled wheelchair emoji

I am a former communications officer for the DisAbled Women's Network of Canada

trophy emoji

I created a scholarship program for trans and/or disabled singers called the Right to Sing Award

gold medal emoji

I won the Salsinger-Tani Gold Medal for Excellence in Music Performance from McGill University

My top priorities are...

‣ Trans and Nonbinary Joy

‣ Accessibility

‣ Centring BIPOC Experiences

I believe I do my best work when these three priorities are at the top of my mind. I strive to centre those at the margins in everything I create. If you find this upsetting, then you may be in the wrong place! (Although I strongly suggest you read Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack by Peggy McIntosh!)

I am always open to hearing new ways that I can support marginalized communities in my work. Please contact me if you have any suggestions or requests.

I help trans and nonbinary people (like me!) find their voice 

💖 I know you hate being put into boxes and expected to conform to cis standards of gender presentation.

💖  You're sick of being misgendered on the phone.

💖  You want to include your voice in your transition but you've struggled to find clear guidance.

💖  You've tried practicing on your own but you've reached a plateau and don't know where to go from here.

You already have what you need to love your voice

Even if you've been struggling for years. Even if you've been told that you're not good enough. I believe that with enough patience and clear guidance, anyone can transform their voice.

I take complex vocal ideas and explain them simply and clearly. Watch the compilation below to get a sense of my teaching style.
