As an instructor, I join physical awareness with detailed text work in pursuit of clear, expressive, and vibrant storytelling. Those who work with me walk away with a clear sense of their text, strong personal connection, physical availability, and the fulfillment of honing their artistic practice.

​

As I completed my MFA during the pandemic, I offered my first independent class, called ZmActing. It was not just an online class but one in which we specifically asked how to make compelling work while at home and on screen. In each of its two sessions, participants and I explored how to bring our physical life to and through the screen in search of new ways to tell stories on live virtual platforms. 

​

In addition to teaching, I also offer individual coaching. Working together provides an opportunity not only to expand your craft, but to examine how you move through the industry.
