On the Come Up with Libby and Riley

Pitched Perfect with Joelle Stiles-Brown

Vocal

Vocal professional and entrepreneur Joelle Stiles-Brown has always believed that everyone can sing. Her desire to help people find their voices inspired her to study music education at BGSU, and continue to help others after graduation through her work at The Willow Center therapy practice. However, Joelle felt her passion of music didn’t have to be second to her career. Taking the leap, she decided to start her own vocal studio, with the goal of being inclusive of any and all clientele. Joelle talks about braving the business world, her ideas for her vocal studio, and her love for the art.
