About Stephanie

I have degree from Connecticut State University, where I doubled in the study of psychology (essential for acting!) and theatre. I have been a working actress for 25 years, and I have been teaching acting, theatre and voice for 13 years. I have taught all ages in a classroom setting, and private students have ranged from ages 9-adult. I want to connect with each student, understand their needs and create a fun and challenging program designed especially for them. I am a disciplined teacher, drawing on Stanislavski's method, as well as Sanford Meisner, Stella Adler, and Uta Hagen, among others.

I do not have reviews on this website yet, but I do have many past clients and co-teachers/directors willing to provide references.

Feel free to call me for pre-screening! Respond and I will send you my phone number.

I look forward to meeting you!

I adore every single thing about acting. I also continue to learn from my students! Each one has a unique voice, expression and style. Kids/teens also have a better capacity to use their imagination than adults, so I especially love working with young people. I emphasize the humanity of acting; empathy, respect for the material and the space, reading body language, subtext, picking up other people's cues, staying present, etc. Anyone can be a talking head, but making a character seem 3 dimensional takes cultivated skill.

I started teaching in New York City, at a perfroming arts school. I taught Shakespeare, monologue and scene study, impovisation, comedy, and acting for film, television and commercials. 

When I moved to California, I implemented a drama program in a few different schools in Los Angeles and directed musical theatre and dramatic productions for Kids and teens on Stage in Santa Monica.



I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology (so important for actors) and theatre from Connecticut State University. I have been a working actress for 25 years and a teacher (speech, voice and acting) for 13 years. I directed productions at Kids/teens on Stage for 4 years. I have worked at a performing arts school, a pre-school, a K-8 school and teach currently as an outreach teacher for the International City Theatre. I also direct and am currently putting up a show at St. Anthony's.

Meet the student, assess their needs, and develop an acting program that works toward their personal goals. I like an hour session in order to accomplish the work needed and not be rushed. There is a theatre space locally that I have access to, or I can come to you.



My private students have mostly been teens and adults, though I will coach students as young as 9, including a few celebrity clients. I have worked with young professionals who are currently working in films, television and plays, and have had the pleasure of seeing some of my students on the big screen!

I also have taught theatre in a classroom setting for all ages, now mostly grades 3-8.



Ask questions. Don't choose based on an online profile. Meet once, audit a class, get to know their style and then decide if a teacher is right for YOU.



I recently participated in a fundraiser that incoporated the talents of multiple musician, actor and comedian friends, When I can be creative, stimulate others creatively, and also contribute to the community, I am my happiest!
