TESTIMONIALS
"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." - Erica Ibsen
"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."
- Dominic Burgess
"Christy has a keen, intuitive understanding of people, specifically the types of roles that will not only showcase an actor's unique casting, but also challenge them to grow as artists. She assigned sides that brought out qualities in each actor that I wanted to see more of, whether unexpected or perfectly on type. During our 4 week class, her feedback helped me to take more risks, access deep vulnerability, and clean up some distracting on camera behavior. The class not only benefited my self-tape audition skills, but also improved my confidence while acting."

"I’ve known Christy for years and continue to learn from her. She is the quintessential actor’s friend, and a master of script analysis. With an extensive and very impressive casting resume, her notes are always with both the character in mind, and tailored to how they fit on the individual actor. What more could you want in a teacher? I encourage all actors to learn from her…as I do."

"Christy is such a wonderful person to work with. She is generous, works fast, and her magic combination of a great eye for casting and a genuine love of performance/craft means every scene she's given me to work on has been specific to me as an actor, insightful, and deeply satisfying. Any time spent working with Christy is invigorating, helpful, and, importantly, joyful too! Always worth it."
