I am a certified teacher of the Woods Voice and Dialect Coaching Method, founded by Denise Woods (author of The Power of Voice), and I offer voice and accent coaching services for professional, educational, workshop, and private settings. Coaching credits include Lyric Stage Company, Company One Theatre, Emerson College, Boston University, Boston College, and the Pittsburgh Playhouse.
I tailor my coaching to meet diverse learning styles and training levels, creating an enjoyable, empowering, effective accent
learning experience. Email me for rates and availability.
dialect coach
university professor
I've taught acting, voice, and speech at Boston University and The Boston Conservatory at Berklee, guiding students across all stages of their artistic development. My teaching integrates Linklater Voice, Knight Thompson Speech, and Stanislavski Active Analysis to cultivate expressive, self-aware, and socially engaged performers.
In addition to leading core voice and performance courses, I
have directed and produced senior showcases, adjudicated
auditions for prospective students, and mentored emerging
artists in professional preparation and creative identity-
building. Read my full CV here.
private acting coach
I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds to prepare for any type of performance: auditions, performances, college/conservatory admissions, public speaking events, you name it. Coming from an eclectic actor training and educational background, I can find the tools that will work best for your needs. Whether you're an inside-out actor, an outside-in actor, a-little-of-both actor, or an I-have-no-idea-what-that-means actor, we can work together to take your performance to the next level. Email me for rates and availability.
gender-affirming voice teacher
Guided by the research of my MFA thesis, "The Alchemy of
Trans Voice: Gender Affirmation and Expansion Through the Linklater Voice Method," I specialize in helping trans and
non-binary people to identify and attain their unique vocal goals. This work can help to minimize gender dysphoria, promote gender euphoria, navigate issues related to physical transition (e.g. HRT, binding), and open trans-identifying actors to new casting possibilities. Email me for more information about gender-affirming voice sessions, offered on a sliding payment scale.
