More about you: (Short Bio or any other details you'd like people to know): I am director/producer of my own improv group, Slow...Children at Play, in North Hollywood, CA. I also perform and host shows with the Core division. We're into our 10th season of shows. I'm also a film/TV and stage actor and have been in the entertainment biz for almost two decades. I've been teaching improv and acting related classes for over 15 years and currently conduct improv classes at our theatre in North Hollywood as well as through the extension program at L.A. Pierce College in Woodland Hills, CA. And as if this wasn't enough....I am also a motivational speaker, utilizing my improv background and skills at business conferences through interactive sessions. My improv group provides team building sessions/seminars and below are just a few of the companies we've worked with:

IBM
FedEx
Price/Waterhouse/Coopers
Vocaid

I derive a great deal of gratification from facilitating improv whether through classes or team building and watching people really 'get it' is priceless. I love giving back along with making people laugh. Laughter is definitely the 'best medicine.' As an avid golfer, I truly know that my sense of humor is a blessing.
