Go With Me Here
Welcome to GO WITH ME HERE, my virtual coaching studio and your one-way ticket to good vibes and creative freedom.
Finding an acting coach that you authentically connect with can be harder than nailing your Chewbacca impression on the first try. We might make an unstoppable team if:
You’re a high school student stressed about college auditions
You’re in college - or just graduated - and need a helpful nudge
You’re new to the audition grind and you’re craving some stability and control
You’re an established artist feeling stuck, stale, or uninspired in your process
You’ve got a scary self-tape to submit and you wanna nail your best take
You’re ready to bring your full, spirited self into your work
You have an endless tolerance for bad jokes, awkward pauses, and impromptu dance parties
GO WITH ME HERE is a collaborative, virtual space where you can feel safe to play, grow, dig, discover, refine, giggle, work, strive, and endeavor (…and probably see me in my onesie, let’s be honest).
Real Talk - most remote coaching services out there are product-based and focused on making you “marketable.” I myself have ben an eager student in many of these programs…but something always felt “off.” I began to ask myself: “Why do I leave these expensive sessions feeling ‘blah’ and questioning my own artistic instincts?”
Don’t get me wrong: there is incredible value in being marketable and delivering a refined performance…but how can you be so “polished” if you don’t know intrinsically who you are and why that makes you so flippin’ special?
GO WITH ME HERE prioritizes consequence-free play and inspiration, and once we’ve left no stone unturned, we’ll mold that joyful chaos into authentic, intentional, clear magic.
Here’s how I can make the dream a reality *pulls back red velvet curtain*
Schedule a private lesson for 30 or 60 minutes of uninterrupted coaching on material of your choice. Got a monologue or scene that you’re dying to sink your teeth into? Is your rep book gathering some dust? Let’s put that pedal to the metal on your artistic joy.
Comin’ in Hot: Save up to 20% on your sessions when you book a bundle! Choose a 3-pack or 6-pack of sessions at checkout - valid for 3 months - to save some cash while you get your creative juices flowing.
You got the email with the sides, you’ve memorized them, and somehow you’ve talked your roommate into leaving the apartment so you can film in peace…but now what? I got you, baby! Choose from the following class packs, depending on how deep you wanna dive.
Bundle #1: The Self-Tape Side Kick - Get in, get you, get the job! Send me the best take of your self-tape, and I’ll give you the 4-1-1 in a 15 Minute Consultation Call. After some notes and feedback, you’ll be ready to roll (…literally).
Bundle #2: The Self-Tape Hero - Pack an extra punch. In this 45 minute sesh, we’ll do some table work before I coach your sides. You’ll put the goods on tape, send me a draft and I’ll give you even more customized feedback to take your audition to the next level.
Bundle #3: The Self-Tape Legend - I choose you, Pikachu! For 90 minutes, you’ll get the full package: table work, coaching, blocking, wardrobe consult, a voice recording of me as your reader, and feedback on your video draft. CRUSHED IT!
Navigating the stressful world of college auditions can sometimes create more questions than answers (Trust me, I’ve been there). The one thing that’s completely under your control is your audition prep. Let’s get your song, monologue, and audition technique firing on all cylinders and show those adjudicators how incredible you really are.
The following packages are available a la carte or paired with any Add-On Option(s).
Bundle #1: The College Prep Side-Kick - In six 60-minute sessions, I’ll help you pick your material, coach your song, and master your monologue. We’ll run through your pieces in a mock audition, allowing you to apply notes and get those nervous jitters out!
Bundle #2: The College Prep Hero - In twelve 60-minute sessions, you’ll get everything from the Side-Kick, and more! I’ll throw in a pre-screen tech consult, a pre-screen edit, and an audition debrief so you get all the goodies of the Add-On Options without the headache of signing up a la carte.
The College Prep Add-On Options
Leave no stone unturned: Add any of these bonus features to either College Prep Package to give it all ya got.
College Add-On #1: Prescreen Tech Consult - Save the drama for your monologue! In two 20-minute sessions, we’ll solidify all the technical elements of your prescreen tape so you can hit “send” without breaking a sweat.
College Add-On #2: Prescreen Edit - "Ok...I filmed my material...now what?” Patience, young grasshopper. I'll edit your videos into a clean, polished presentation for any college program of your choice.
College Add-On #3: Artistic Statement Consult - These days, most programs require a written statement in addition to your audition. In this 60-minute power hour, we'll shape an essay that conveys your artistic vision and values, and illuminates why you’d be an asset to any training program.
College Add-On #4: Audition Debrief - Every audition is an opportunity to grow and learn. After each of your college auditions, we'll hop on a call to turn “WHOA, what just happened?" into "How can I learn from this?”.
These 2-3 hour, group classes are offered every few weeks. Each session is centered on a new and relevant theme that will open your mind and expand your actor toolkit. Be on the look-out for the latest workshop offering in your email inbox!
Once we’ve gotten you feeling fierce in your song, you’ll need an accompanist to take you to the next level. If you find yourself needing piano tracks for any of our work, just say the word and I’ll connect you to my roster of talented ivory-tinklers.
If you find yourself in need of a website, reel, resume edit, or just need some guidance on your brand - look no further! I will connect you with some tech-savvy folks who will can get your internet presence up and running in no time.
No matter which session or bundle you choose, I’m here to help you with any piece of text, monologue, scene, song, or audition side that floats your boat. So long as your piece makes you excited to be an actor, I’m in!
Once you secure a time slot, you’ll receive a confirmation email with further instructions and more bad jokes (yes, there are always more).
Chaos breeds discovery. My individualized coaching sessions are custom-tailored to suit your personal needs, goals, strengths, and learning style so that — even amidst the play — you feel nurtured, secure, and prepared.
Your quirk is your superpower. Let’s banish rigid “types” from our vocab so you can step into your full, awesome self. Your gut impulses, your roots, and your authentic point of view are precisely what make your creative interpretation joyous, unique, and essential.
Measure success in “Aha!” moments. I know that we’ve nailed our time together when we’ve made tons of discoveries that leave you looking at your piece with clarity, fresh eyes, and renewed vigor.
I’m a proud North Carolinian twirling around the Big Apple. After earning my BFA in Musical Theatre with honors from Pace University, I’ve performed on Broadway and the National Tour of Aladdin, at regional theaters around the country, on cruise line shows, television, and more. I’ve continued honing my skills over the years and I’ve studied with the best of the best — and now I’m ready to spread the love to you.
Bonus points for asking me about:
My list of phenomenal impressions — including Louis Armstrong, a turkey gobble, and R2D2 •
Why I’m such a massive nerd (Hint — it involves a lot of anime… I mean, a LOT.)
• I’ve been where you are, and I’m with you all the way. I remember what it’s like to be in your shoes, since I was standing there not too long ago. Not only can I relate to you, but I’m also ready to give back now that I’m on the other side of the educational theatre process.
• I know what it’s like to feel stifled by teachers. Say it with me: You don’t have to make yourself smaller in order to succeed. Like me, you’ve probably had a lot of coaches throw a lot of ideas and push a lot of agendas onto your beautiful, blank slate. How do you know what works for you? I’ll help you to cut through the noise so you can trust your gut and explore.
• I’m rooting for you. Think of me as part coach, part cheerleader (I may or may not own pom poms). I’m interested in who you are and where you’re going beyond our single hour together. Continue to keep me updated, and I’ll be the first to do a happy dance in your honor.
• I’m a community builder. Bringing talented, unicorn humans together and giving back to our community are incredibly important to me. I created and funded a scholarship at my hometown dance studio for young performers to spread their wings, and I’m just as committed to creating one-of-a-kind learning opportunities for you.
