About Me

DSC04497.jpg

I am an actor, writer, director, producer, teacher & mentor.

​As an acting coach, I take immense pride in guiding aspiring performers toward achieving their goals. With a passion for nurturing talent, I create a supportive and challenging environment where actors can explore their craft and grow with confidence. My tailored coaching methods focus on developing authentic performances, refining technique, and strengthening emotional connection. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing my clients progress from dedicated students to successful actors, with many earning coveted places at leading drama schools. Their acceptance into institutions renowned for their excellence is a testament to their hard work and our collaborative efforts. Seeing their artistic growth and professional achievements continues to be one of the most rewarding aspects of my career.
