I also served as head vocal coach for Hollywood Performers Academy, a K-12 program for gifted students working in the entertainment industry. In 2016 I founded Prep Performs, a renowned after-school program in beautiful Hancock Park, Los Angeles. Here I taught students age 6-18 in voice, acting, public speaking, personal development and debate. Currently I am the lead acting/vocal and modeling coach at Casting Roles, a global company offering preparing talent for industry showcase via iPOP in Los Angeles each year. Many of my students go on to sign with accredited Hollywood agencies and are auditioning and booking professional work consistently. I am repped by The Agency and am a member of SAG-AFTRA. Acting credits include About Hope (Top 20 US Box Office/Amazon Prime) Step Into: Miss Laura’s (Emmy winning) Harry Wild (BBC/AMC), Ireland’s first anime, Lí Ban (TG4/S4C) and upcoming feature film Monkey Grip. As a writer/producer I have had films as Official Selection in Oscar/BAFTA accredited festivals and purchased at the renowned Cannes Film Market for network TV in Europe. In 2021, I achieved dual US citizenship due to my contribution to the entertainment industry. I consequently set up a company ACCESS AMERICA designed to help artists outside the US achieve the same. I can't wait to share my skills with you enabling you to tap into your talent and share it with the world!
