Laurie’s Services

  • "Justina starts with the premise that everyone can sing, and then, with expert training and care, she helps every student find their strongest, truest voice. The strength and tone of my voice improved discernibly when I worked with Justina, and so did my confidence as a singer and my resilience as a performer."

    - Dar Williams, Singer/Songwriter/Author

  • "There are not enough words to describe the joy of working with Justina - not to mention what an incredible teacher she is. I have NEVER had anyone explain to me how to use my voice as an instrument better than her - and her approach is far more than just voice, but a holistic approach to making music with your entire being. I am constantly learning something new everytime I work with her and I find myself singing better and with less effort since meeting her."

    - Jillian Matundan, Award-Winning Singer Songwriter & Musician

    - Maura Greenman
