as part of the cast to maximize every artists creative
capability. The partnership and teamwork that is
developed brings out the best in every artist. His
comittment to making every singer sound their absolute
best is a performers dream!

computerized design fields also bring another level of
creativity and production to the Vocal Center - allowing the
performer who wishes to record their own demos, the
additional artistic creativity to design their own
artwork. Working closely with photographers and the
singer - the true realization of their dream demo can easily
be realized.
Expanding this creativity even further, Doug is also
the Webmaster for the Vocal Center - combining
recording abilities and graphic design, while working in
close concert with Ana G, to keep the website in the upper
eschelons of web marketing, design and visibility.

Because of her experience with record companies, recording studios, record producers, and live concert productions, Ana G will help you discover your full potential as a performer and offer you a unique and professional insight on the entertainment business as a whole. Recording artist, entertainer, owner and director of the Ana G Vocal Center, she is a woman of many talents and many passions.
