What I Offer
I offer a range of services to meet the needs of every actor, including group classes and one-on-one coaching. I work with everyone from those brand new to acting all the way up to coaching longtime stage veterans.
I’m often asked, “I want to do film, should I bother with theatre-based acting?” YES! Most of the great film actors cut their teeth doing theatre. This is where you’ll be able to learn the basics and hone your skills before a camera is suddenly pointed at you!

“
Starting acting later in my college career, it’s easy to feel intimidated. Doug emphasized that acting can be for anyone and encourages his students to find self-fulfillment in the practice.

I had the privilege to study under, work alongside, and collaborate many times with Doug. His kind and inquisitive demeanor made it a joy to work with him. I will always carry with me his lessons and would love to work with him again.
