NYC Performing Arts High School Admissions Coaching
As a born and raised New Yorker I know how exciting yet overwhelming the high school admissions process can be. I was lucky enough to have a coach who not only helped me with my pieces but who also invigorated my love for performing so that amidst the buzzing energy of auditions I did not loose sight of the love I had for my craft. It is my hope to now pay that passion for performing forward (as well as top audition performances).

Qualifications
In 8th grade I was admitted to both of the top performing arts high school's in the city and, more recently, I graduated with my BFA in Acting from the University of Michigan. While in college, I coached students under the guidance of professors and was trusted to teach classes while they were away. Upon graduation at both my high school and college I was awarded for my artistry and work ethic.
