DeMello, has been named Cambridge Who's Who Professional of the Year in Vocal Coaching.

The Cambridge Who's Who selection committee chooses these special honorees based on their professional accomplishments, academic achievements and leadership abilities.

For her demonstrated commitment to Honolulu, July 12, 1998 was proclaimed Eunice DeMello Day by Former Governor Benjamin Cayetano.

Today, DeMello lends her expertise as a vocal coach, training a wide range of students from professionals to amateurs, singers, lawyers and doctors. Using her unique physically-oriented vocal techniques, she trains students at both The Studio of Eunice M. DeMello and through online chat forums. Her coaching style is renowned throughout the U.S. and she credits her success as a performer and instructor to the love and support of her parents, as well as the guidance of her professor, Hermanus Baer.
