Professor Grady has been my professor, but more importantly, my voice teacher for the past year. She has taught me a great deal about vocal technique, auditioning, and the theatre industry, while also helping me to gain career opportunities. Professor Grady truly cares about her students in a way that is indescribably special, and she has been such a great support system for me during my time at BW.
