From Tech Nerd to Pro Singer: My Unlikely Journey as a Vocal Coach
Hey there, folks! Today, I want to share with you the wild and wacky story of how I stumbled into the world of vocal coaching. Get ready for a fun ride!
Once upon a time, yours truly had a terrible singing voice. And that's not all—I was living a completely different life. Picture this: I was a tech nerd, obsessed with video games. I mean, seriously obsessed. I'd spend hours upon hours playing RuneScape online, while the remaining hours were devoted to coding video games. T
But deep down, I knew there had to be more to life than sitting in front of a computer screen all day. I craved something more, something different. That's when my love for music kicked in. Whenever I felt lonely, I would escape into the tunes of my favorite singers. Their voices became my refuge, my solace.
As I observed the glamorous lifestyle of lead singers, I couldn't help but feel drawn to their charisma. It was like a magnet pulling me away from my coding adventures. Sure, I dabbled in playing the drums for a church band, but there was something about singing that intrigued me. I wanted that rockstar lifestyle, even though I was just a gaming enthusiast coding away in my basement.
So, I made a bold decision—I would learn to sing. The only problem was, I couldn't carry a tune to save my life. When I mustered up the courage to post my singing attempts on social media (ah, the good ol' days of YouTube), the response was brutal. People left comments like, "Please stop, this is horrible!" Ouch, right?
But hey, I didn't let that deter me. I was determined to figure this singing thing out. I embarked on a decade-long journey of learning, seeking guidance from top vocal coaches, devouring YouTube tutorials, and even taking one-on-one lessons with celebrity mentors. It was a rollercoaster of trials and errors, but I persisted.
