Teaching
Whether you're looking to improve your audition skills, turn in that perfect self-tape, or hone your craft in a one-on-one setting, a private session can help propel your work to the next level. I'm now offering the chance to work with me for monologue coaching, self-tape coaching, and technique coaching. These sessions can be booked as singular or recurring appointments. Students will have the opportunity to film their progress and use the footage for their reels.
