Testimonials:
“Michelle has been an amazing coach and mentor for Sara! Sara has so much fun working with her and has made major improvements in her singing and acting in the process. She comes out of every coaching session confident, excited, and happy. With Michelle's guidance, Sara started auditioning recently and made it to the final callbacks at two major theaters in her first two auditions, and then was offered the role at the third audition. Sara loves acting and Michelle has made it possible for her to realize her potential. Michelle puts her whole heart into her work with kids and it's clearly a labor of love for her, not just a job.”

“Michelle pushes everyone out of their comfort zone. She believes you can do it, even when you think you can’t.”
-Emily, Student
“Michelle is the best coach because she helps you make the good things that you're doing even better, and she helps you fix the small things that can make a big difference in how your audition goes and whether you get the part. And, working with Michelle is really fun!”
