About Me

My photo
Kimbrûlée
I am an opera singer with my MM in vocal performance. I also have recurrent nerve paresis. This injury went undiagnosed for several years. Throughout those years, I attributed much of my vocal trouble to technique issues, never imagining the problem really originated at the level of the vocal folds. The process of recovery has now led me to become a speech-language pathologist. I've completed my clinical MS and am currently pursuing a PhD in this field. I hope this blog will be a valuable resource for those who suspect vocal injury, are recovering from injury, professional singers and voice teachers. I have another blog, Balanced Voice (http://balancedvoice.com), that is intended to help advanced voice students, voice teachers, and professionals expand their scientific and teaching knowledge.
