Meet Maeve !
I have an unmatched passion for the beauty that can be created by the voice.
I began singing at age two under the guidance of my grandmother, Dorothy Riley, and went on to earn a Theater degree from UCLA’s School of Theater, Film, and Television. While at UCLA, I performed with internationally ranked a cappella group, the ScatterTones, and am featured as a soloist on their studio album Quintessentials (Dirty Diana). I also produced, directed, and starred in the first production of Sara Bareilles’s Waitress outside of New York. Beyond my vocal pursuits, I also spent my college years interviewing film, television, and stage performers on red carpets for BroadwayWorld.com, and ran BroadwayWorld’s Vine, Snapchat, and guest reviewed on their Twitter for special events.
I have worked extensively in television, appearing as the Lifeguard on FOX’s I Can See Your Voice before joining the show as a vocal coach for Seasons 2 and 3. I also coached for We Are Family (FOX) and The Masked Singer (FOX). Between these series, I have coached artists and celebrities including Michelle Williams (Destiny’s Child), Kelly Rowland (Destiny’s Child), Peter Frampton, Jojo, Joel McHale (Community, The Soup), Nikki Glaser, Andy Grammer, LeAnn Rimes, and many more. I later joined the Music Team at NBC’s The Voice in 2022, and went on to do backup vocal and choir work for the show in its 27th and 28th season. I have also worked in casting and development for numerous television productions, including Alter Ego, The Floor, and American Idol. Outside of television, I have also built a following of more than 200,000 across Instagram and TikTok through my singing videos. I am currently performing in the musical Jimi Darkness, which is set for an off-Broadway run at the Soho Playhouse in February 2027.
Now, I am bringing my knowledge to you. I have taken great joy in helping students thrive at any level, and love holding their hands while they grow into confident performers and singers. I will be diligent in improving the foundation of your voice, while also providing strong insight into the ever growing entertainment industry and social media landscape.
