Kim Nelson
Hey Hey!
I'm a Toronto-based actor who's worked consistently on stage as well as in film and TV for over a decade. My toolkit includes Meisner and Strasberg, improv and mindset training, mindfulness work , as well as nuggets mined from a variety of scene study and on-camera classes with celebrated teachers and directors around the world.
So, let's take a deep breath and go! I'm here to help you work with ease and joy, bringing your full self to the table whether you're just drilling lines, want some audition coaching, help with script analysis, set prep or, of course, you just want a reader for your self-tape! I'm also fluent in English, French and Spanish if that comes up.
We all work differently, so I will take your lead and will only offer notes/advice if asked. What I will however do -unsolicited- is be your champion . When you win, we win, and some recent big wins have been bookings for Marvel, Universal Pictures, BET, Apple TV and CBS!
Looking forward to diving in with you!

In her younger days, she was a competitive fencer (epee), show-jumper and gymnast. Though she's retained her athleticism, yoga and dancing (zouk and salsa) are the new "thing"
Kim loves to play in any good story but if she gets to be a superhero or a Tolkein Elf...? Gah! #girlsgottadream
