About

I’ve been working as an actor for many, many years and something I’ve found fascinating about the craft of acting is that there is always something to learn and that no matter how much experience you have, you are never finished. In my journey as an actor, I found that in the beginning, not a lot came naturally to me so I really had to work hard to figure out each aspect of my craft and try lots of different techniques and ways in before I could master it. Having worked and trained so much, I found that I now have a large tool box I’ve built up over the years that I have been sharing with my clients in my coaching. I love to be able to approach each actor with a set of tools and vocabulary that will work specifically for them, whether it be text analysis, personalization of choices, physicality, etc.

As we all know, auditioning is HARD! A client came to me with audition material where he was playing a twin conjoined at the head, his brother was choking and he had to call 9-11 while his body was slowly shutting down. TRUE STORY! The first thing he said to me was “what the heck do I do with this?” and after an hour of work together, we came up with quite a great tape that got some exciting, positive feedback!

I like to always provide a safe, encouraging, inspiring (and hopefully fun) environment to work in and I’ve learned and firmly believe that the best work can be done in this kind of environment.

Of course I love to see my actors book work! I've had actors book, get callbacks and great feedback for major TV shows, Broadway, off Broadway, regional theater, films and acceptances into top drama programs. I've also spent years growing my toolbox as an actor and I love being able to share all of those tools with my actors and help them figure it out!

    Amy is an amazing acting coach and teacher. My 10 year old daughter has been taking lessons from her for 2 years. Amy is patient, professional, knowledgeable, incredibly skilled, and fun. Initially, my daughter had very little experience in front of a camera and Amy made her feel confident and successful. She is super positive and has the ability to make any scene feel easy to master. Amy meets my daughter where she is at and makes her feel incredibly comfortable. Although she is coaching her virtually, it feels like Amy is with us in the room due to her warmth and authentic presence. We also really appreciate Amys flexibility. When we hear about a last-minute audition, Amy moves mountains to help us - putting her clients before anything else and guiding us through the entire audition process - from researching the scene through masterfully editing a self-tape. My daughter adores Amy and we are both so grateful to work with her!

    Amy has been my go-to acting coach whenever I get an audition. She is knowledgeable in her craft and was able to prepare me quickly and efficiently for my auditions with quick turnaround times. I highly recommend her to any actor looking to bring their audition process to the next level.
