Introduction
Hi, I’m Lily, and I would love to guide you along your acting journey. I will provide unique feedback to bring you to your best work. I am a professional actor and director with 20 years of experience in the theater. I graduated from the Meisner Training Program at the William Esper Studio, and hold a BA in Theater. I have worked professionally as an actor regionally and internationally for ten years, and have directed numerous productions. I believe my authentic perspective as a director comes from my in depth experience as an actor. I see the intricacies of the work through both lenses.
Whether it is for an upcoming audition or self-tape, or you are working on something for a class or job, I will work with you to bring out your most truthful and meaningful work. We will get to the heart of the piece so that you are acting from an honest and authentic place. The name of the game is storytelling, and I am here to be your avid and critical eye, working through the nuances of each moment to draw out your most captivating storytelling yet. I can work in person or remotely, however I find in person work to be ideal. I am open to working with all levels of experience. I look forward to meeting you and unlocking your most authentic potential!

I loved the approach of acting with a hint of spirituality and approaching each scene with their own moment before to really set the mood! I was beyond happy with the coaching session! Not to mention what a lovely human she is! Can’t wait to work again!

I hired Lily to help me with an audition tape and was extremely pleased with where we got with it. She helped guide me to emotional places that would’ve taken me much longer to reach on my own. Our session left me feeling confident as an actor and energized about acting as a craft. I plan to use her as a resource for all future auditions.

I’ve been looking for a good acting coach for a long time so I am incredibly thankful to find Lily. Not only is she kind, prompt, and professional, she is a badass actor. Her natural empathy fuels her passion for the craft and she is ecstatic to share her gifts. I was very unsure of how to approach a script so she taught me exactly how to break everything down into actionable verbs. She blends the spiritual with the technical at an expert level. Lily’s acting experience is not something to second guess. Not only have I gained a wealth of knowledge while studying with her but I got a role I auditioned for with her techniques!

Lily is an outstanding acting coach. She has helped me with scene work for classes and performances, as well as monologues for auditions. She gives feedback in very clear and direct ways, with an overarching spirit of encouragement and trust. She also has an unmatched sense of humor and play, which is evident in her loving energy when she coaches and directs.

Lily is an amazing coach! I felt so prepared for my audition after our session. She was kind, professional, collaborative, and brought me to a place I didn’t even know I could go in my acting. Her insight was invaluable. From just one session she helped me in ways that will change the way I work going forward. I will definitely be back!
