OUR WORK
Vox Vera® Coaches
Vox Vera’s Associate Coaches are trusted partners in high-stakes rooms — courtrooms, boardrooms, executive teams, and public forums — where language must land and presence must hold.
Each coach is a substantive expert in voice, text, performance, and embodied communication, selected for mastery, teaching depth, and the ability to demonstrate the work in real time. We only partner with coaches who share a common ethos and training: rigorous craft, deep respect for the client, and a commitment to bringing each professional to their most effective human presence.
Our associate coaches support lawyers, executives, physicians, founders, and public leaders in trial preparation, board presentations, keynote speaking, investor pitches, and other high-stakes communication environments.
