Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
AI am a SAG-AFTRA actor with experience across film, television, theater, and live performance. I teach acting, improv, and storytelling on Outschool and have led hundreds of classes for a wide range of learners. My classes are hands-on, challenging, and designed to bring out each learner’s voice—whether they walk in loud, quiet, confident, or unsure.

My training comes from both sides of the industry: conservatory programs, improv clubs, on-set experience, live direction, and real collaboration. I have studied in the United States and Brazil, and I have performed everywhere from indie stages to camera-heavy sets. I have directed actors, coached monologues, worked with scene partners mid-crisis, and stayed sharp through it all. Nothing about what I teach is hypothetical.

In my classes, learners are expected to show up, take risks, listen closely, and make bold choices. I am not here to give vague praise or pass time—I am here to help learners grow as performers in a space that is safe, supportive, and creatively alive.

I have been doing this work for over 30 years. I bring all of it with me. Every time!
