Hi! I've been a READER for casting directors who have cast for STRANGER THINGS, Fresh Off the Boat, IN THE HEIGHTS, The Young Pope, The Peanut Butter Falcon, and The Resident. Not to mention all the casting director workshops I've taken over the years! I'm very excited to meet you and read for your self-tape audition.
I've had a decade of experiencing auditioning, so whether it's TV, film, theatre, or voiceover, I'll make sure you're set up to shine. My favorite readers are ones that set up the jokes, then get out of the way for the punchline. Whether it's drama or comedy, I'll make sure to give you the energy you want from the scene so you can live fully and completely in the moment (thank you Lesly Kahn & Co).
Do you have a LAST MINUTE self tape request or want to schedule an audition ahead of time? No problem, send me an email if I'm not online. I am usually available for EVENING / NIGHT auditions as I know a lot of the community has work during the day. I used to work night shift, so don't worry about LATE NIGHT auditions that are past midnight.
MEDICAL TERMINOLOGY getting in the way of your process? I've been a Licensed Practical Nurse for 11 years and can help you break down medical terms functionally so you can say them with ease in your audition!
Additionally if you improv, I have performed at UCB and The Squirrel Theatre in NYC and would be delighted to improv before a scene to get you into character. Or we can just improv a fun two-person scene to practice. I'm a huge nerd for longform improv forms, especially the many forms of Harolds and Pretty Flower / Spokane / Family / etcs derivations that are out there.
Thanks for your consideration, and Break a Leg!

I'd be happy to EDIT your self tape as well for an additional fee of $5. Casting directors will pass on an actor within 10 Seconds of seeing the audio and video quality. I'd be happy to sweeten your audio and clip your takes together so Casting stops critiquing the video and starts watching YOUR PERFORMANCE.
