Bio

I've been working as a professional actor for over 30 years. I can be heard in Voice Overs and on Animated shows, as well as on TV, Film and on the Stage. My television and film resume spans projects like Modern Family, The Wild Thornberrys, NCIS, Parenthood, Desperate Housewives and many more. I've been working in the commercial world for even longer, having voiced and filmed spots for products such as Progressive, Scrubbing Bubbles, AT&T, Allstate, Vitamix, Gerbers, Oil Of Olay and many...

I've been working as a professional actor for over 30 years. I can be heard in Voice Overs and on Animated shows, as well as on TV, Film and on the Stage. My television and film resume spans projects like Modern Family, The Wild Thornberrys, NCIS, Parenthood, Desperate Housewives and many more. I've been working in the commercial world for even longer, having voiced and filmed spots for products such as Progressive, Scrubbing Bubbles, AT&T, Allstate, Vitamix, Gerbers, Oil Of Olay and many more. I also have a background in dance and sometimes incorporate a short body warm up into our sessions. I've seen the industry move through a variety of trends and feel it is extremely important to stay up to date on what the industry is asking for now.

I primarily work on Zoom and have been coaching since 2017. I'm proud that many of my clients have originally come to me for just one lesson and have turned into on-going clients. I enjoy working with both children and adults and have been told that I go way above what’s expected from a teacher. I truly enjoy what I do and love meeting people from all over!

In our sessions we'll have an attitude of curiosity and openness to exploration. I'll supply you with fresh scripts to work from in whichever medium you choose. We'll take a deep dive into connecting with imagined scene partners, learn techniques and warm-ups that will help you stay in the moment and use your own life experiences to help make your reads and performances unique and authentic to you.

As a working professional, my creative toolbox is loaded with tips and techniques, and it brings me great joy to share them to help you in pursuing your goals.

Acting

Acting

I’ve been working consistently as an actress for over 30 years. I love what I do and am excited to share my knowledge as I help my students (adults and children) approach the work in an authentic and fun way. I’ve had the privilege of performing with many A-list actors and with each experience I add new tools to my ever growing acting toolbox.
Animation

Animation

I've worked on projects such as Nickolodeon's series, DOUG and Disney's Brand Spankin' New DOUG, playing a variety of characters. Other projects, The Wild Thornberrys Movie, Winx Club, Mr Burcham, Disney's Katbot and many others. I've been coaching since 2017 and as well as continuing to work in this field myself. My clients practice mic technique as well as developing characters and learning out to make them pop on an audition.
Film

Film

I've worked on numerous TV and Film projects such as Senior Moment with William Shatner and The Poison Rose with John Travolta; and have spent years honing my skills on TV and Film sets in New York, LA and throughout the country. Other projects, Modern Family, Parenthood, NCIS to name just a few. I've been coaching since 2017 and as well as continuing to work in the field of Tv and Film myself. My clients practice developing characters from a holistic approach that helps bring their unique qualities and perspectives to the diverse characters they're playing. We do exercises developed by the legend, Sanford Meisner as well as incorporating improvisation and physicality to bring the students' work to life.
Theater

Theater

I've been working in this business for over 30 years and since 2017 have been coaching clients on all that I've learned practicing my craft. I love helping to break down a monologue or scene to get to the heart of what the characters are saying. Helping clients connect their own experiences to the material is a great way to keep them grounded in the moment instead of making choices that are coming from a result oriented point-of-view.
