I like to get to know my students first and foremost.

From there we will build out a syllabus/model catered to your needs to work through.

I'm a certified Method actor trained at the prestigious Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute (New York Campus).
Masterclasss training actors; Joseph Marcelle, Vincent D'Onfrio, George Loros and Suzanne DiDonna.
