I'm Jay - a London-based voice coach, communications trainer, and performer, passionate about helping people find their most authentic selves as speakers, leaders, and in their creative practice.

I’ve spent over seven years working in finance, alongside some of the leading figures of UK payments. I’ve presented at conferences, led working groups, alongside key stakeholders and C-Suite executives. Throughout, I’ve encountered a shortage of those skills which make an audience connect with a speaker. 

Consequently, I have developed an extensive syllabus of vocal, performance and improvisational skills, aimed at improving communication ability, raising confidence and connecting with your most authentic self, all in pursuit of answering the question: who are you on your best day? And how do you deliver that person, time and time again?

With over a decade performing on the UK and European comedy circuits as a comedian, improviser, and cabaret artist, I understand real-world resilience - both vocal and otherwise - and what it takes to perform under pressure. I hold a Certificate in Vocology from the Voice Study Centre, a grounding in voice science which complements years of performance and improv training, and shapes my coaching methodology.

For executives and teams, this involves 1:1 public speaking coaching and group sessions on communication and networking, built on three foundations: voice science, performance technique, and improvised comedy.

For performers, this involves vocal technique, connecting with your audience, accessing your material, and the tools to make your performance replicable, night after night. We can also work on techniques to strengthen your confidence as a performer. 

My coaching focuses on function over formula: finding what works for you. It will never be a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you're a rising executive, a gigging singer, or simply curious about improving the way you show up in a room, I can empower you think on your feet, communicate with presence, and find your most authentic voice.
