“I was captivated by his commanding stage presence, incredibly beautiful tone, and ability to draw the audience in with each word.” Paul Dyer, Co-Founder & Artistic Director, Australian Brandenburg Orchestra
With years of experience performing in Australia, Asia, and Europe, I am well positioned to help prepare aspiring and professional music theatre actors of all ages as they explore this challenging industry!
Whether you’re auditioning for tertiary education courses, professional auditions, or purely wanting to have some fun singing and acting, I am ready to do whatever I can to bring out the best version of you. Using a combination of vocal and acting techniques as well as case-by-case discussions of individuality, I want to build upon what makes you special and how to use that to your advantage as you find your way in the fascinating world of theatre.
With over a decade of teaching experience both in person and online, I believe creating a nurturing and positive teaching environment brings out the best in people, allowing them to find the joy of performing while celebrating their own strengths. I am now available for private tuition and group masterclasses. Please get in touch via the Contact page!
