When I first started taking lessons, I was terrified of singing in front of people, even my own parents. I was worried about being judged. Heidi was able to show me that the only one stopping me from being confident with my singing was myself. Heidi goes above and beyond with her lessons because she not only teaches theory and skill, but also mindset and artistry. Without mindset, no one would be hearing me sing anywhere. The difference between when I first started taking lessons at age six to now is unbelievable! I now realize that music is meant to touch people and make an audience feel something as opposed to solely impress them with your sound, and this makes me less afraid.

I wasn’t anything when I first went to Heidi. Just an eighteen-year-old with dreams too big for her life. I had no concept of what I didn’t know, no knowledge of the subject I wanted to make a career out of, and no work ethic or self-discipline to learn and stay consistent.
I came to Heidi with nothing. Now I don’t want to say that Heidi did all the work for me. It was impossible for her to do that. I had to figure some stuff out on my own. I had to sit down and force myself to learn music theory and the beginnings of production. I had to do vocal exercises every day myself. I had to fail over and over again and still come back the next day. But Heidi laid down my foundation and helped me build myself up every single week. She didn’t just teach me basic music theory, vocal exercises or the basics of music production. Heidi taught me about discipline and what it means to be an artist and to devote your life to music. Heidi taught me how to get over insecurity and how failing is part of succeeding. How you want to fix your technique, but equally important as singing the right way, is singing with your heart. During bad weeks, when I was too depressed to practice my scales or vocal exercises, and I cried because of how much of a failure I felt like I was, Heidi told me that guilt is useless energy and that the only way to feel better is to move forward. During the weeks that I was too distracted and too caught up in having fun to prepare for my lessons, Heidi taught me the importance of time management. On days when I had no hope, Heidi listened. She became my biggest supporter, my strictest coach but my lenient mentor.
