Janet brings a vibrantly creative and deeply empathetic approach to adult and kids’ vocal instruction. At her teacher audition, hearing the adult pop and rock student laughter and the fun happening in the room—it sounded like joy. As a performer herself, she is great with adults and working with diverse pop, rock, trance, electronic, and singer-songwriter music projects, but also has the superpower of being a heavyweight in children’s education.
Vocal Coaching for Kids and Adults
A multifaceted musician, writer, and educator, Janet understands that finding your voice is about more than just technique—it’s about emotional connection and authentic storytelling. Her unique background bridges the gap between professional vocal performance and holistic, student-centered education.
For over a decade, Janet honed her pedagogical skills while homeschooling her own children, eventually channeling her background in music publishing into the creation of the multi-sensory educational program “Storytime with Annie & Rocco.” Her curriculum focuses heavily on Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and helping students navigate big emotions. In the vocal studio, her “name it to tame it” approach translates into an incredibly safe and supportive environment. Janet is uniquely equipped to help singers of all ages tackle performance anxiety, overcome self-doubt, and build genuine confidence in their instrument.
Real-World Artistry: Pop, Electronica, & Contemporary Vocals
Beyond her educational work, Janet is an active, fiercely independent artist with a dynamic range of real-world experience:
- Contemporary Vocalist: She recently showcased her versatility by stepping into the world of electronica, serving as the lyricist and featured vocalist on the 2025 deep house track “You’re Enough” with Lorenzo Dewberry.
- Independent Producer: She handles her own recording, production, and curriculum development, giving her a ground-up understanding of the creative process to help students refine their own artistry.
- Published Creator: Her creative journey—including publishing physical, music-based picture books—was recently highlighted in an SDVoyager feature, showcasing her dedication to making music empowering.
Whether you are a beginner looking to build foundational confidence or an experienced singer wanting to connect more deeply with your material, lessons with Janet offer a structured, highly personalized, and joy-driven approach to vocal mastery.
