About
I have my Master in Classical Acting for the Professional Theatre from LAMDA (London Academy of Dramatic Arts). I am a director and an actor, and a former Associate Artistic Director for Arizona Actors Academy in Phoenix, AZ.
I've coached students that have been accepted in Drama school B.A. and M.A. programs in the U.S. and in the U.K.
I can coach for theatre as well as TV/Film. I specialize in Classical Acting. Voice for theatre and film, and dialect reduction. I can also do Laban for Acting.
I've been teaching for over eight years, and can adapt my style from beginners, whom are just learning, to experienced actors, whom are preparing a role or experiencing blocks in their work.
