ABOUT MY TEACHING

The actor expression through voice is extremely important as it is revelatory of the whole range of thought and emotion.  To explore the connection with voice is to explore the connection to the physical, spiritual, emotional, and intellectual life of the actor.

 I have been studying the Linklater technique for over 15 years.  I first studied with Craig Bacon, a designated Linklater teacher, at SUNY Purchase.  After graduation he became my mentor. I examined his Linklater classes and his work as a director of Shakespeare productions with New Place Players.  I studied with Guy Molnar and Gwendolyn Schwinke while attending an acting intensive with Shakespeare and Company in 2015. While getting my MFA I studied the Fitzmaurice approach to voice training with Patricia Delorey. I also trained in London with Patsy Rodenburg and Charmian Hoare. Voice work is now used in many fields to help people with a large variety of needs. Whether you are an actor who wants to expand your capacity for breath and your ability to be heard without pushing, or a public speaker who wants to improve your clarity of thought and expression, I can help.
