I was born in the countryside of England and always seemed to be an old soul with a keen ability to read people, and some even thought that I might have psychic powers. As I got older,  I realized the ability I possessed was not mystical as much as -- scientific!  An ancient phenomenon that is deeply rooted in all of us, the ability to read body language, something our ancestors depended on for survival. 

​

As an adult, I honed my natural skills by studying behavioral psychology and communication at Arizona State University where I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Justice Studies with an emphasis field in communications, and a minor in political science.  I became an award winning orator and even paid my way through university by competing in academic debates and forensic competitions.  

​

As time went on, I became even more fascinated with neuroscience and how the brain can affect our communications in the workforce.  I started applying this knowledge while working as a private communications consultant and word quickly spread of my abilities making me known within an elite inner circle of professionals as a leading deception detection expert.  I was working with trial attorneys, business executives, and politicians, all of whom needed my bizarrely accurate sense of discernment.  

​

For the past 25+ years, I directed my attention towards my work as a casting director & producer for film & television where I realized the unique capacity and potential of my background for helping actors, from those just beginning their careers, to well known and established stars. 

 

The same winning principles that I had used to consult trial attorneys to help them to exonerate their clients in a court of law; the same advice I would use for politicians in their pursuit of a winning campaign; and the same advice I gave corporate moguls to get the upper hand in business deals; all worked well to help the actor reach their career goals.  Instead of making the audition process more allusive, my Acting Science Method™ is surprisingly logical and can be mastered quickly. My work continues to evolve and I am proud of the direction it is headed, from best-selling books, to international retreats, there is something here for everyone, brave enough to create.
