Charie (Rie) Jones is a professional singer and performing artist from Reidsville NC. Music and singing have been a part of Rie's life since the age of 7 and it was at church that she found her love for teaching songs. As the

daughter of a pastor, Rie participated in many opportunities to help various church choirs and praise teams with

vocal arrangements for concerts and special events. Rie attended Winston Salem State University

where she joined the singing group, 'Voices of A.R.T.', which taught vocal discipline and various

technics to enhance Rie's gift of singing. Voices of A.R.T. also provided Rie the opportunity

to work one on one with several of the group's vocalists for upcoming productions, which led to positive responses as well as a demand for more

private lessons from Rie with clients inside and outside of the group.

"I believe that I

have been given a gift to help vocalists reach their full potential and achieve the goals they have

set for themselves during our sessions."
