Specialties
Michele specializes in coaching actors for auditions in film, TV and theater. She does private acting coaching and also teaches on-camera acting classes. Michele is a singer/songwriter/pianist too, so she can assist with any auditions that involve singing or playing a musical instrument in addition to acting. She also helps students with the Business Side of Acting: the audition process, getting agents/managers (if not represented), headshots, resume, cover letters, demo reel, how to contact casting directors, which services to join to submit yourself for auditions, casting workshops, etc. Michele welcomes students of all ages (kids, teens & adults) and students with no experience who are new to acting.
Michele has a professional video camera and can tape and edit auditions or do reels for students. If you live outside of Los Angeles, she coaches via SKYPE.
