About Samantha
"THEATRE IS EQUIPMENT FOR LIVING!"
This is the motto I live by! It would be my honor to share that passion with you and your child.
I dedicated my Bachelor's degree in Performing Arts Operations from MSUDenver to capturing as much knowledge as possible from each corner of the theatrical world.
I have been singing professionally since childhood and performing all my life in productions ranging from community theaters and choirs to orchestras and a Broadway tour feature. I adored my times as a costumer, set builder, and stage manager throughout college, but enjoyed directing intimate performances and teaching acting even more! I deeply appreciate each rehearsal and planning meeting required to create something magical.
As an arts administrator, I have fundraised, advertised, and managed budgets, season programming, and performers throughout their contracts. As a super patron of the arts in the Detroit Metro area and theater advocate, I am on the beat for the next best show ready to tour and ways to find and enjoy productions in your backyard. I look forward to working with you!

Are you and your child looking for an acting coach?
Nothing is quite like a one-on-one mentorship experience! I will design an individualized lesson plan that creates a special environment where your child can explore, play, and even prepare for auditions. We will get to know each other, and I will learn what works best for your child.

Samantha is one of those rare people who just radiates creativity, kindness, and genuine passion for what she does. I’ve seen the incredible impact she has on her students—building their confidence, helping them find their voice, and creating a space where they feel truly seen and supported. She has a natural gift for bringing out the best in people, and it’s so clear how much care and thought she puts into her teaching. If you’re looking for someone who will not only help you grow as an actor but also make the journey joyful and meaningful, I couldn’t recommend Samantha more highly.
Samantha is wonderful with any age group, but especially with children. She has a natural magnetic personality and has always been cast in leading roles when performing for theatre productions. She knows musical theatre and several genres of music extremely well to make recommendations. She is very astute at helping you to choose the perfect monologue that will suit your personality or your child's personality as well as ones that help to demonstrate your depth as an actor/actress. If you want your child to increase his or her ability to improve their public speaking skills, participating in one-one-one sessions for acting class will greatly enhance these aspirations for your child or for an adult. These classes can truly be transformative to enhance your personality or your child's personality. This is rarely being accomplished in a classroom setting because time does not permit. I highly recommend Samantha. She is a great coach and a great mentor/guide for many aspects of the theatre world. She can tailor-make a class just for you or for your child.
