About me
Thirty-five years experience in acting (film and stage), directing, choreography, writing and coaching. I received my Performannce Studies Diploma in musical theatre from Sheridan College and an Honours Degree in Drama from the University of Guelph. I am a positive person, easy to work with, directable, and I love a challenge especially dramatic roles but I have a quirky/comedic side as well. Over the last 3-4 years, I have gotten more involved in film and I played a major role in a short that won Best Canadian Short at the Grand River Film Festival and is a nominee in the NSI web festival.Additional skills:
Speaks French; excellent communication skills; extensive experience and success coaching/directing teenage actors; educator; mental health blogger/speaker.
Additional information:
My time is split between doing what I love to do, performing/directing, and teaching others how to do what I love to do. At my age, I know the talent pool is getting smaller, thank God, so I'm beginning to do less teaching and more performing, especially film opportunities as my experience in that area is limited as opposed to theatre which is extensive.
