Over 15 years of experience as a Professional Actor in both NYC and LA. I received my BFA from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. My teaching style is supportive and thorough. I want you to feel confident not only in your auditions, self-tapes, and industry interviews, but also gain perspective as an artist and how you approach your craft.

I am a co-founder of The Movement Theatre Company in NY and have performed in various plays in New York City; 'Carlisle: a different Three Sisters' (La Mama), 'Black Boy & the War' (Harlem School of the Arts) and am a proud SAG-AFTRA member. Reyna in 'Wicked Mom's Club' and Danielle in 'Left for Dead' on Lifetime Movie Network and I have starred in multiple Independent Features ('Downshift'), New Media; ('Livin' The Dream') and have been featured on Network TV (Westworld, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and Lethal Weapon).

I'm a working commercial actor that you see on TV. I am also an acting coach, manager, and former agent. And many of my former students are now top commercial actors, TV regulars, and film stars. I grew up in Tyler, Texas, and I have returned to work with actors all across my home state of Texas. I specialize in starting careers and teaching actors to book jobs. My technique will get you on your feet and working. You will gain a complete understanding of Hollywood business and what it takes to become successful. All acting techniques have evolved, including what we do commercially. How real can you be? Do you know how to create humor and believability?

Do you understand the role of the casting director, ad agency, set AD, and production director? I often hear from casting directors, "It's great to see when an actor gets it right." During the height of my acting studio in Los Angeles, you couldn't turn on the television without seeing one of my actors from the studio in commercials

I am a working actor and love the craft of acting. Everything about it. My respect and enthusiasm will be the hallmarks of my lessons. I find acting a deeply gratifying look at authentic behavior of ourselves and the world around us. I teach thru a basic Meisner approach with actual on-set and on-stage experience, all the tips of the trade, for working and booking. Coaching is also available.
