Founder & Lead Instructor · De'Ja Holley
Meet Coach D.
De'Ja Holley is a worship leader, recording artist, and vocal coach with classical, jazz, blues, and gospel experience. Accepted into Berklee at 18, she studied vocal jazz and pop, taught through the pandemic, and is now returning to Berklee. In addition to singing, her musical roots run deep on the instrumental side as well—she played trumpet in band all through middle and high school, competing and performing regularly, and continued playing trumpet in college.
She founded DREAMHOUSE to open doors for Detroit’s gifted singers — helping them discover their voice, confidence, and new opportunities.
