Teacher | Performer

“Mike taught me how to be a successful and healthy vocalist - without his teaching I would not have had the tools to thrive during extensive contracts. He has always taken the time to understand my voice and personal goals, and provided lessons that inspired growth. He is passionate and knowledgeable about his work and he will always be my “go to” coach.”

“Working with Hadary allowed me to pursue aspects of my voice that I would have otherwise been hesitant to explore, or not even know I possessed entirely. Working with him caused me to learn techniques and patterns of my voice that I have taken with me into academic and professional settings and excelled.”  

-Will Cole (Kennesaw State)
