I've been in films on Amazon Prime (Something, House of Manson) on Television on the Lifetime Network (My Crazy Ex), and in many Theatre shows(Proof, Down the Road, Savage Love).

In July 2023 my professional name with the union SAG-AFTRA changed from Jane, to Patty, which is why older reviews refer to Jane (my middle name) :)

    Jane is not only an outstanding coach and guide, but she is also just an amazing human being. She is so down to earth and caring about your success. She isn't going to sit there and tell you how wonderful you and build your ego. Jane is going to challenge you, guide you in where you fall short, push you, praise when appropriate, and you are going to have fun the whole way through. She is always open to communication through email or text. She will make you think about what acting really is and her only goal is to see you succeed. The class is centered around your goals, it's a safe place to experiment, learn, and grow. I could not recommend her enough for people just starting out or wanting to expand upon their skills.
