Acting Teacher

Creative. Experienced. Collaborative. Innovative.

If you are an organizer and would like to book an intensive for your school or company, my approach is integrative and collaborative. Browse the full list of workshops on offer, and please contact me if you'd like a bespoke solution.

I also have classes and intensives that may be happening now, in an area near you. Private coaching is offered to a few clients for focused, quality time. However, all are welcome to a no-committment chat on Zoom to see if I can help.

I get involved with emerging trends in the profession and institutional training. Here is an overview of current and past projects.

Join me on the Crosspoints Substack for insights on acting, performance theory, book reviews, and behind-the-scenes teaching notes. Along with colleagues and collaborators, we explore our art from fresh, unexpected angles.

FROM THE BLOG

In this new series of updates, I’ll be sharing thoughts from the intersections of my practice, some insights from my creative projects and research, and a few life-lessons I didn’t expect to learn (but needed to).

About

What are Crosspoints?

From diverse professional experiences, I bring a broad spectrum of approaches to all sessions. Over the decades, they have formed a system that bridges classical training with contemporary innovation. My work is grounded in the dynamic interplay of intersections—crosspoints between modern and postmodern approaches, between the actor and the story, between the text and lived experience.

 

The Crosspoints approach was created while I was colleagues with some of the world's most prominent artist-teachers. They developed over decades, holistically and practically, as I worked in various contexts worldwide.

 

The system provides fluid, adaptive, and invigorating frameworks for actors seeking a deeper connection to their expressive range.

 

While every workshop on this site is self-contained, together they form a comprehensive arc of training that contributes to an actor's individual, sustainable practice.
