PRIVATE COACHING (ALL AGES):
As an acting coach, I work with beginning and established clients for film, television, and theater.
BFA/BA AUDITION PREPARATION AND COACHING/CONSULTING:
All of my one-on-one coaching sessions are tailored to meet your specific needs. In addition to working on required monologues, I am also available to help in each step of the process, including the choice of school that's right for you, the application, and the essay. I also offer Mock Auditions where I replicate the experiences you will have at the schools you are auditioning for.

Jacob is an incredible acting coach! With the training I received from Jacob, I was able to excel as an actor, ultimately getting into my top choice for graduate school. He is funny, insightful, smart and clearly loves what he does. I left each acting lesson feeling more and more inspired. Can not recommend his coaching enough!
I met Jacob at an Acting Teacher Training Program at Juilliard. He is a thoughtful, inquisitve and deeply empathetic human being who takes the time to get to know anyone who crosses his path. Did I mention that these qualities make him a fantastic acting teacher? They do! Anyone would greatly benefit from his teaching. Did I mention he is also a great actor with a lovely sense of humor? He is!
Jacob and I met each other while at acting school in New York City. I have had the pleasure of leaning on Jacob's wit, humor, and excellent teaching style for help with all kinds of auditions and jobs. Now as a professional Broadway actor I still contact Jacob regularly when I have an important job. He is exactly the type of hard working and good natured person you want on any team, and in every classroom.
His constant reassurance and confidence makes you want to keep diving into your work. His knowledge and vibrancy makes him someone you want to work with!
