Acting For Film, Stage, Or Small Screen
About
I'm a working film producer and director with roughly 3 decades of experience as an actor. Not only can I help you improv your craft, but as a producer and director and often casts I know how to help you become a working professional. I'm a credited producer on over 30 feature films and TV episodics as well as a director on over a dozen films. I've performed professionally on screen and on stage for years and have trained around the world.

Teaching allows one not only to give back to the art that has given me an excellent quality of life but it also helps me to grow as a professional. We learn from every moment of life, we're just not always aware we're doing it.

The first step is to evaluate where you're at in your career and what your goals are.

From there, we begin to develop the fundamentals of the art while also paying an equal amount of attention to the business aspect of developing a career.

I've trained for nearly 3 decades from LA to NY and have worked professionally on film, on stage, and on television.

Acting is always subjective. There are no true right and wrong ways or approaches. Every student has their own unique way of learning and often each role requires an individuallized approach.
