“Mark has helped me determine and realize what my "brand" as an actress is, in a very successful, unique, and casting- agent- drawing way! And perhaps most importantly helped me to see my true potential as an actress. Since studying under Mark I have booked several high paying gigs!”
-Ariel Lewis
I've learned more in 1 month with Mark than I have in the majority of classes I've taken in NY or CA. The classes are hands on, direct, and forces you to tap into Your Truth."
-Adrian Arthur
“His coaching techniques are honest, one of a kind, and helped me land my very first TV Commercial!!!"
– Terrence Shingler
“He really makes you think about your career and what goals you want for yourself. Mark consistently makes you think every step of the way. Mark spends time with you and enables you to perform in order to reach your maximum potential; he is great at getting the most out of your performance.”
– Miriam Ferguson
“The sessions have helped me tremendously in preparing for my recent auditions as well as in landing a few roles. I've made several connections with well known casting directors, talent agents, photographers, etc. The information that Mark has to share will definitely take you to the next level in your acting career. Also, seeing his personal accomplishments first hand, is an inspiration of what a serious actor could expect to happen with them.
