"Christy's classes have given me a safe space to craft my own preparation process for auditions. She pushes me to explore, take risks and always be as authentic as possible no matter the role or how much time I have to prepare."

"My consultation with Christy before my last headshot shoot was instrumental in its success. We reviewed my materials at the time and she gave me honest and actionable advice on how to elevate them. She helped clarify my casting and guided me with specifics on how best I could support it. After the shoot, she went above and beyond to help me select the final shots I now currently use, including where and how to use the different choices. Her selections were so spot on, all my reps wholeheartedly agreed... and let's just say I've never auditioned like I audition now. It's like night and day."

Christy is a teacher of rare versatility; able to push and challenge her students with individual care and attention to their specific needs. As an actor my craft has grown under her guidance, I'm able to take bigger risks, make bolder choices and to push myself further. Notes are forthright and specific, and she has an ability to instinctively make adjustments that will further enhance performances. As an audition coach, Christy delves into the material with you, exploring the character and the world.
