Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Welcome! I'm thrilled to refine your acting, voice, speech, accent and public speaking skills. As a professional actor and coach, I'm dedicated to helping performers of all ages and levels uncover and nurture their distinctive voice and talent. Seize the discounted intro session: $50/half-hour or $85/hour. Kindly note that Thumbtack charges for messages. Let's jumpstart your progress together! If you're genuinely committed to growth and eager to collaborate, get in touch. I specialize in both classical and modern texts, with a focus on Shakespeare and Meisner techniques. I also emphasize voice and speech development, and I am multilingual, which enables me to assist with accent-reduction and language-specific performances. My mission as a coach is to help you unlock your full potential to express yourself authentically. Acting is a powerful tool for self-expression, healing, and transformation. I take pride in empowering my clients to grow and evolve personally and professionally. I'm committed to creating a supportive and nurturing environment where you can take risks, explore new ideas, and reach your goals. My extensive graduate training in acting, voice, and movement techniques includes classical Shakespeare technique, Stanislavski, Meisner, Lecoq, Mask, Clown, Alexander, and Linklater. I have taught acting at the George Washington University, and I hold an MFA in acting from the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s Academy for Classical Acting at The George Washington University in DC, as well as an MA in acting at Shota Rustaveli Theatre and Film Georgia State University. Additionally, I've studied Meisner technique at Playhouse West Acting School and Theater for two years, as well as Film Acting and Improv at Walnut Street Theater Acting School. I offer personalized one-on-one virtual or in-person sessions tailored to your needs. This includes a strong emphasis on voice development, as your voice is the most powerful tool for you as a performer. By working on breath, tone, projection, and other aspects of voice training, I can help you achieve greater range, depth, and expression in your work. It’s of prime importance to protect your voice from damage. I teach actors, singers and speakers to own their voice and keep it safe. My coaching covers a wide range of topics, including Acting, Classical and Modern Texts, Performing Shakespeare Verse and Prose, Voice, Speech, Voice-Over, Movement, Stage Combat, Alexander Technique, Interview preparation, Auditioning, Self-taping, Screen-auditioning, Drama School Applications, Drama and Theater Studies, Public Speaking, Business Planning, Project Management, Artist Development, Professional Expectations/Professional Development, Personal Statement and Resume Review, Long-Term Creative Mentorship, and Guidance. During our sessions, you'll develop a deep connection with the text, scene, and your stage/screen partners. I can help you conduct script analysis, decipher and understand Shakespeare's heightened language, and approach classical monologues with confidence. Archetypes, mask work, and clown techniques can enhance your character growth. We explore fun, amazing animations and characters with your voice in your voice-over training! Additionally, I can teach you performance and communication skills, including body language, facial expression, pace and energy, articulation, clarity and diction, vocal reflection, intonation, accent work, public speaking, speech writing, and communication. I am passionate about helping my clients build a strong foundation in acting techniques and develop a deep understanding of their craft. I understand that each performer has unique strengths, challenges, and goals, and I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs. My coaching style is supportive, constructive, and empowering, and I will work with you to create a safe and creative environment for growth and exploration. If you're ready to take the next step in your acting journey, I would love to work with you. Contact me today to schedule your first session. I offer discounted first sessions, and classes can be conducted virtually via Zoom or in-person at my studio.

I would have selected all five of the options if I could! Tina is a consummate professional and very knowledgeable- it was a pleasure to work with her and any student who chooses to do so will be very fortunate to have her guiding them through this process! She makes it easy to open up, the exercises are very interactive and informative- and the lessons themselves feel very tailored to your specific needs. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Tina has been an incredible aide on my acting journey. She’s provided wonderful tools and tips aimed at improving my understanding and ability to properly use my voice and warm up my body. As an actor transitioning from background to featured speaking roles, it’s been helpful to have a coach who can assist in script analysis when I have auditions and Tina is insightful and easy to bounce ideas off of. Tina is also incredibly easy to schedule with and really dedicates a lot of time to personalizing lessons for both your skill level and goals. I’m thrilled to be working with someone with a robust technical background and am excited to learn and grow as an actor with Tina’s guidance.

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the incredible impact couch Tina has had on my acting journey. Her expertise, patience, and genuine care for her students have made all the difference in my confidence growth. From the very first class, I knew I was in good hands. Her ability to create a supportive learning environment is truly unparalleled. I appreciate the way she takes the time to get to know me as a student of hers, and tailor her teaching approach to meet each students’ unique needs and goals. Her guidance and assignments have been indispensable to me. I appreciate her ability to give constructive criticism in a way that is both honest and encouraging. She helped me to identify my strengths and weaknesses, and to develop a plan for improvement. I have already seen significant progress in my acting skills, and I know that I have her to thank for that. Beyond her expertise as an acting coach, I also appreciate the warmth and kindness she brings to every class. Her positive attitude and sense of humor make each session enjoyable, even when we are tackling difficult material. I always leave her classes feeling inspired and energized. I cannot recommend her highly enough as an acting coach. Her professionalism, expertise, and kind demeanor make her a true gem in the industry. I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her and learn from her, and I look forward to continuing to grow under her guidance.
