Nancy E. Harris, M.H., Vocologist, L.M.R.V.T.
An accomplished, widely experienced teacher in the arts, specifically in vocal production and presentation, singing, acting, and storytelling, Nancy has had a private studio for over 40 years, and was a college instructor for 15 years, teaching such things as speech, acting & movement, and multiple humanities courses. Her training includes a BA (Vocal Music Education/Studio Voice/Theatre), a Master of Humanities (Voice/Theatre/Comparative Literature/Art History), the Summer Vocology Institute at the DCPA, and certification in Lessac Madsen Resonant Voice Therapy. (A Vocologist has more post-grad science than a regular voice teacher and can work in a clinical setting if desired.)
