Meet The Team

Fast. Furious. Connected.

​

Taking a class with me is a high energy + highly supportive experience, I love to watch you shine!

​

Improv is always about the people in the room, and asks everyone to show up honestly in the moment. I cherish the opportunity to support vulnerability in a space that asks humans to support each other fully.

​

The Bay Area is the best because of our genuine interest in each other, west coast best coast for life. 

​

My students will walk away feeling heard, challenged to get out of their heads, and stretch their creative muscles.

Life's a garden, dig it. 

Playful. Thoughtful. Immersive.

​

A class with me is going to inspire and bring out the fantastically creative storyteller that is within you!

​

I love that improv offers an environment for a person to explore their creativity. The collaborative nature of improv also promotes everyone to listen, accept, and build upon each other's ideas.

​

I love the diversity of the people in the Bay Area along with its beautiful geography.

​

The most important lesson my students will learn is realizing their own creative potential and abilities. 

The improv stage is a lens for who you are.

Expressive. Attuned. Warm.

​

Taking a class with me is serious unserious business - Let's find what you wanna work on and dive in!

​

Improv encourages us to listen to ourselves and to our teammates. We explore deeper parts of who we are and delight in the funny, honest reactions we have to the world around us.

​

I'm a San Diego kid spoiled by good weather--I like the rain in the Bay. And the people.

​

My students grow their capacity for listening and exploring new ideas onstage, getting bolder, braver, and kinder in class!

​

Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art.

Creative. Emotional. Story-driven. 

​

My classes focus on building your skills in creating rewarding, theatrical scenes and stories.

​

Improv provides a great way to express your silly, creative side you can often suppress in the "normal world". This is a space to be the fun version of "you" in public that often only exists in private.

​

The Bay Area provides such an accepting, welcoming culture where everyone is allowed to be authentically themselves.

My hope is my class gives you the tools and inspiration to continue performing and telling your stories.

​

Let you be you.

Grounded. Authentic. Movement. 

​

Class is always filled with joy, laughter, and letting you follow your intuition. You are the art! 

​

I love improv because it's a fun way to express yourself, connect with others, and have a hilarious time. Improv is an opportunity to be your authentic self in a supportive way. 

​

The Bay Area is an amazing community filled with silly, creative weirdos! It must be the coastal air. 

​

My students walk away with less anxiety, a sense of newly discovered confidence, and a belly full of laughs.

​

Put improv on your bucket list, and let's kick it.

Thoughtful. Supportive. Mischievous.

​

I build sequentially on skills to start small and learn through discovery.

​

I love the surprise and delight of the unexpected in improv, and treating the comical and absurd with genuine emotions.

​

The Bay Area improv scene is about making connections rather than following the laugh!

​

I want my students to leave class feeling invigorated, inspired, and confident in themselves.

​

Choose a choice and believe in it!

Feral, disruptive, spiritual.  

​

Taking my improv class feels like being supported by a homie who happens to be your "improv coach"—you'll learn the joys of fucking-around-and-finding-out and discover that embracing play and pleasure is a powerful act of disruption.

I love that improv is inherently collectivist joy creation because the barrier to entry is low. All we need are our bodies, hearts, and minds, starting with the sacred choice to play together.

​

I love the Bay Area for its majestic landscapes and natural beauties.  

​

The most important lesson I want my improv students to take away from my classes is that play is our birthright. Play doesn't care what age, gender, class, religion, or which direction you place the toilet paper roll in. Play begets more play and that choice to play is always within us if we can remember that it's there. 

Let's fuck-around-and-find-out together! 

Playful. Offbeat. Giving.

A class with me is an opportunity to foster your strengths and develop your unique voice as a performer.

​

Improv is this amazingly weird artform that can be anything. It is hilarious, heartfelt, absurd, heartbreaking, magical, and more! It inspires communities and builds confidence in people. Improv tickles my soul.

​

The Bay Area is where I was born and raised. From the breathtaking landscapes to its progressive values to its vast variety of perspectives and experiences, I cherish what this area has to offer. I carry a great pride in calling this my home.

I want my students to feel empowered to recognize that they are never stuck in their scenes. There are always infinite possibilities within reach. I will help you to effectively access them.

​

Everybody shines. Everybody wins.

Spontaneous. Effervescent. Fun.

​

Taking a class with me is like listening to an amazing cover of your favorite song...refreshing and joy-inducing!

​

What I love about improv is that you get to collaborate to create something that has never and will never happen again. Magic happens when you connect with others towards a common goal, all while you are all in a state of "play."

​

I love the Bay Area because all are accepted and weird is welcome.

​

I want my students feel empowered and confident in their newfound skills.

​

There's no flight plan: gotta wing it!

Character. Intuition. Truth.

​

Taking a class with me is where you get to get out of your head and into your body -- and get so immersed while playing that you lose track of time!

​

Improv is an opportunity to get present and recognize the creative genius in yourself and those around you. It is about listening to notice, to increase our ability to observe what is right in front of us, but often overlooked.

​

The Bay Area is where I have learned, taught, and continue to be inspired: The Stanford Improvisors, BATS Improv, Studio A.C.T., Speechless, Un-Scripted Theater Co., Awkward Dinner Party, The Bechdel Test, and many more!

​

My students will walk away feeling lighter, more connected, and with a fresh reminder that they ARE an improviser.

Improv is about delighted discovery, not invention.
