Over 30 years’ coaching experience helping actors discover the joy of sound, and communicators of all stripes explore how spoken language serves as a topographical map to understanding.
Performance
Performance basics to help you discover your connection to the text and to your audience.
Voice & Speech
Opening up and expanding your natural voice to better respond to the needs of the text.
Dialects & Accents
Practical work on specific accents and dialects, as well as general work on how to approach any accent or dialect that may come up in future work.
Authors and Other Non-Actors
Performance coaching tailored to your goals, whether it’s a public reading, presentation, or longer form narration. Wherever you are in terms of skill, we’ll go over everything you need to connect with your audience, keep them enthralled, and leave them wanting more.
Background
I’m an actor and a coach with a long track record of success. I have a BFA in Acting from Ithaca College, and have served as an acting, voice & speech and dialect coach in a variety of settings, from theatrical productions to film to studio training to private coaching. I’ve devised group classes and worked with individuals on special projects. I’ve worked with actors performing outdoor Shakespeare, Greek drama, and high comedy; and I’ve coached for film and voice over. I’ve worked with authors and musicians and corporate types as well. Style and size of performances may vary, but the fundamentals remain the same across the board.
