BIO
William Pazdziora is a New York and Connecticut-based voice teacher and performer. He is the co-founder of The Voice Collective, an NYC voice studio that offers elite, artist-centered vocal lessons for professional and pre-professional singers. William's clients have performed on Broadway, in national tours, on cruise ships, and in regional theaters across the country. He has also worked with students studying at prestigious programs including Juilliard, Boston Conservatory, and Berklee College of Music.
In addition to his private studio, William is on the voice faculty at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City, where he teaches Musical Theater students. He previously taught at Berklee College of Music and The Boston Conservatory. William holds an MFA in Musical Theater Vocal Pedagogy from the Boston Conservatory and a BA in Theater from Temple University, where he graduated summa cum laude with a concentration in Musical Theater and a minor in Dance. He has presented at national voice conferences, including the Boston Conservatory’s Vocal Pedagogy Professional Workshop, where he shared strategies for working with dancers who sing.
As a performer, William is a proud member of Actors’ Equity Association and has appeared in regional theaters across the United States. Internationally, he toured with the world tour of Shrek the Musical, performing in major venues across Asia and the Middle East, including Istanbul, Abu Dhabi, and Singapore. Regional credits include Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Mystic Pizza (Ivoryton Playhouse), Evita (Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival), Jesus Christ Superstar (Bristol Riverside Theatre), Rock of Ages (Eagle Theatre), and Spamalot (Media Theatre).
When he’s not teaching or performing, William enjoys spending quality time with his wife, Rebecca, their spirited daughter, Magnolia, and their cat, Penny. He’s an avid gardener, a fan of story-driven RPG video games, and is always on the hunt for the best gluten-free food and a perfectly crafted Old Fashioned.
