VOICE OVER / ACTING COACH

AVAILABLE TO WORK VIRTUALLY AS WELL AS IN-PERSON IN NEW YORK CITY

WHY I COACH – As a young performer I remember the Mentors, Coaches and Teachers that saw  a creative spark in me and took me under their wing. They nurtured that spark into a fire and  guided my passion into a career. Their influence honed my skills, gave me confidence, and not  only made me a better artist, but a better Human Being. I love the thought of being that for  young performers. Learning the ins and outs of the business is valuable as kids grow up in this  industry. It helps to become a more well-rounded actor, a versatile artist, and a savvy worker  navigating an industry that isn’t easy. But more importantly, it teaches confidence, pride, an  owning of one’s own power, the courage to never dim your own light, and shine bright as you  walk through this world as a creative soul. THAT is why I coach.
