Experience & Background

His life journey – told in the 2022 documentary Robin des Voixled him to research voice and breath beyond what was thought possible, as doctors told him at an early age “voice would never be his thing” because of a congenital condition.

His expertise spans the spectrum of voice utilization, whether in singing or speaking, culminating in the concept of “vocal leadership.”
