Biography

Juilliard-Trained. Performance-Focused.

I'm a dialect and voice coach helping performers deliver performances across film, television, and theatre.

My work can be heard in major productions including the live-action remake of Moana, Little Women, The Hustle, and Plainclothes — and on series like Rings of Power, We Were the Lucky Ones, and New Amsterdam.

On stage, I've coached West End productions including Stranger Things: The First Shadow, Come From Away, and Harry Clarke with Billy Crudup. As an actor, I've performed on Broadway in The Inheritance and at The Shakespeare Theatre Company in Romeo and Juliet.

My approach combines technical precision with a relaxed, collaborative process that helps performers feel confident and fully prepared.
