Philosophy

Acting at its best is an inspired and rewarding art. Becoming other characters allows us to explore a greater range of our humanity. It takes courage, imagination and craft. A good coach honors the art form and each actor she works with. She contributes talent, skill, humor and support to each session.

Why Coach?

Most actors benefit greatly from having a coach because it's hard to SEE your work when you are IN your work. The coach's job is to be your objective eyes: to assist you in making specific, vibrant choices that are honest, true to the character's point of view and shaped into a dynamic journey that reveal the text.

It is also important to be vocally true to the character. As a voice and dialect coach, I can also be your objective ears, helping you change an accent, catch a comic rhythm or use classical language techniques as required.

What I Have to Offer

I have over 25 years experience as an acting coach and voice teacher with a successful track record.

As a professional actress, trained in a number of acting methods, I can speak to different levels of experience in whatever acting language you speak.

I have expertise as a voice and dialect coach. Many actors come to me because they can also get professional vocal coaching while they are getting their acting coaching. The combined service saves valuable time and leads to a more organic and integrated performance.
