Overview
I’ve been coaching for more than 30 years, working with actors, authors, musicians, performers of all stripes and non-performers alike. Whether you’ve got an audition or a performance, a reading, or a presentation, we’ll always start with a deep dive into the text. Grounded understanding and connection to what you’re saying is the jumping off point.
As a coach, teacher, and in one marvelous, magnetic production, “voiceographer,” my strength is in helping you cut loose. I spent more than seven years as a coach at Edge Studio in NYC, and now teach privately from the wilds of Brooklyn.

Areas of Focus
Acting & Performance
Communication starts with connecting to what you’re saying, who you’re saying it to and why you’re telling them this. This is true whether you’re an actor in a role, an author doing a reading, or an executive in a sales presentation. Digging deep into your text, we’ll work on that connection and on grounding your performance—this is the first step in finding your voice and strengthens its ability to respond flexibly and with deep sensitivity.
Voice & Speech
Your voice is one of your most basic tools of communication. We’ll work to be sure it’s as flexible and responsive as it can be. By focusing on relaxing and grounding your natural voice, you’ll find the freedom to explore size, range, variety, and versatility. We’ll focus on connection, breath and impulse, physical release, resonance, range and precision.
Accents & Dialects
In depth work on an accent or dialect. We will focus on understanding and incorporating sound and rhythmic adjustments, placement, and musicality. From there we can move into increased facility and strength, consistency and confidence. The ultimate goal is precision, integration and ownership.
