“Working with you, we really tested the limits of what I thought was possible. I had such imposter syndrome that I could be an opera singer, but you helped me develop a thoughtful plan where I could take one step at a time. Having an outside person believe in me helped me believe in myself and apply the necessary steps to go for it. You helped me see what could be and drew out my vision, helping me to feel empowered and listened to. I feel like my vocation truly matters. I am now participating in high level regional opera and classical music settings as a soloist and a collaborator. I have shared the stage with world-famous musicians and in world-class venues, such as Carnegie Hall. I am using my gifts and talents in ways that once seemed impossible.”
