What’s the process?
-
01/ You book your session
Simply choose a time and date that suits you, and complete the brief questionnaire so I know what we’ll be working on.
-
02/ We collaborate
We meet on Zoom and dig into what matters most to you — your auditions, your mindset, your career strategy — with grounded, actionable feedback and clear next steps, so you’re never spinning your wheels.
-
03/ You feel the shift
Your auditions deepen. Your choices sharpen. Your confidence roots in truth. You walk away with a plan and the tools to execute it.
If you could audition for that career-changing role today…
…would you be ready?
If your answer is no, that’s not the end of the world.
It’s the start of our conversation:
Imagine having someone in your corner…
Giving you raw and honest feedback on your craft
Keeping you on track and proactive when things slow down
Guiding you with implementable instructions & actions rather than just encouragement
Helping you stop “doing it right” and start telling the damn truth
…so you ARE ready to convert that career-changing opportunity when that ball is finally thrown your way!

“ within about five seconds of meeting me, she completely read me, pinpointed what I needed to work, and what she suggested I shift in my work and in my mindset. Her comments really hit home for me. I was truly inspired.”
~Rebecca Rapoport-Cole
★★★★★
““She doesn’t only care about the work, she also cares about you. It doesn’t feel like I’m with a teacher, it feels like I’m with a friend, with a mentor that cares about us.”
~Sebastian Urrego, actor
If you want a one-size-fits-all approach, I’m not your coach!
I don’t believe in locking you into long contracts or selling you empty promises.
This is a collaborative process led by intuition, built on craft, and guided by my ability to see what’s really going on beneath the surface.
Nothing’s guaranteed in this business.
I can’t promise you an Oscar.
But here’s what I can promise:
I’ll challenge you to be your best.
I’ll help you move through what’s keeping you stuck.
And I’ll open your eyes to more freedom, more possibility, and way more fun.

FAQ’s
-
Anything you need! A lot of actors come to me for audition coaching where we break down your sides, and help you truly connect to the material. I also help actors with monologue prep, career strategy, self-tapes, confidence, mindset, and nerves. Our session really is your time: we’ll use it where it serves you best.
-
Yes! Some of my best sessions have unfolded under pressure. If you have a same-day or next-day audition, I’ll help you get clear, grounded, and ready to walk in (or tape) with confidence. I always try to squeeze my regular students in when those “panic” auditions hit. If you don’t see a place on my schedule when you’re trying to book, shoot me an email to see whether I can squeeze you in because it’s important to me that you get the support you need.
-
Most actors book a 60-minute session, which gives us enough time to dig deep and polish your work. Sometimes for self-tapes or big auditions, we’ll go 90 minutes to 2 hours. If you’re unsure, start with an hour because we can always add more if needed.
-
Absolutely. We’ll work on your scene beat by beat, craft a compelling moment before, run takes, and troubleshoot any technical hiccups. I’ll help you make sure your tape feels professional and has the best mix of honoring the written material and sharing YOU. You can either set yourself up to tape while I read and coach you over Zoom, or I can also tape you on my end. Please note: the quality is best when you tape yourself.
-
Absolutely. If you’re in Los Angeles and want to work in person, all it takes is a referral from someone and enough lead time.
-
Definitely. I often review reels, clips, and headshots during private sessions. I’ll give you honest, actionable feedback on what’s working, what’s not, and how to shape your materials so they match the kinds of roles you want. I will also help you set them up on your casting profiles in the very best way.
-
Yes. I believe the craft and the career are connected. I’ll happily help you clarify your type, your target roles, how to position yourself, and how to pitch to agents or casting. If you’re stuck, we’ll make a game plan.
-
It depends on your goals. Some actors see me once for an urgent audition. Many work with me regularly (weekly, biweekly, or as needed) to stay sharp, build confidence, and keep growing. The work really deepens when we build a rhythm together.
-
That’s one of my specialties. I have practical tools to help you ground yourself, reframe nerves as rocket fuel, and walk into the room (or press record) feeling like you belong there.
-
A 60-minute session currently costs $75. If you prefer a longer session, reach out by email. I also offer discounts on multi-session plans.
-
If you have an urgent audition or want deep, focused attention, start with a private session. If you want to build skills consistently, take bigger risks, and learn from peers, try a class. Many of my students do both! If you’re unsure, reach out or book a FREE 15-minute strategy call. I’m happy to help you decide what fits your goals, schedule, and budget.
-
No. I’ve worked with both seasoned actors and emerging talent on their journey to achieving their audacious goals. Private coaching can benefit any actor because it gives you an objective perspective on your craft, how you position yourself, and how you can best leave your mark in our industry.
This is your chance to get private access to everything I’ve learned as a working actor over the past 30+ years
