Hi! My name is Madeline Clere (she/her), and I first came to Seattle Voice Lab as a student. It was during those lessons that I felt good about my voice for the first time! But during those lessons, more than just my voice, I found my calling, and I realized that no matter what else was happening in life, if I could help another trans person love their voice the way I love mine, that I’ll be doing what I’m meant to do. So for the next year and a half I trained to become a trans voice instructor, and now I get to spend every day doing what I love!
