    About Mark H.

    5.0
    (8)
    I am a professional actor with more than 15 years of experience in film, televison and theater. I earned my BFA in Acting from the Academy of Art University in 2013 while simultaneously completing the two and a half year training program at The Meisner Technique Studio. Since then, I have continued to study acting at places like Julliard Ext., PAA in LA and more. My focus as a teacher centers around the student and making great work that's enjoyable. I use my wide range of experience and education to help build a craft that is specific to each actor, made up of exactly what they need to know to succeed and reach the highest standards of acting. I teach and coach actors of all ages and experience levels and I am also passionate about helping my students understand/navigate the industry and find representation. I have been teaching for a few years now and it has become one of my greatest passions.
