About John
I have had the pleasure of performing music and acting on professional, college, community, high school and private stages. I have played in a band that toured the world and played solo coffee shop gigs. I have worked with local independent film for about 10 years and am well connected to the art scene in the area.
I have degrees in theatre and musical theatre and currently direct throughout the community. I also currently direct musical theatre at Reed High.
I am looking to find students that are ready to explore this incredible art form and help them achieve whatever it is your creative open minds can dream of.
There is so much to enjoy. I look at acting, directing and teaching as the ultimate happiness. I often say to my actors 'They call them plays because we get to go play for a couple hours out of our day. ENJOY IT'
It is a fascinating thing to say about such a serious art but that is what playing is. When we can pretend so hard it almost comes true. In the theatre and on the screen we get to pretend so hard that it becomes a reality for everyone else too.
I have a love for learning and it has developed into a love for teaching. It’s truly exciting to see a student achieve a goal and develop into the person they are trying to become.

John opened my eyes to a new world of acting, and understanding it on a personal level. We were able to connect with each other and ourselves more than ever before. We could be vulnerable, raw, and express our true emotions. He helped me find the actress in myself, and I continue to grow more and more everyday because of it.

i keep my rates low because I love this art and want to help others develop their skills. That said if you have a special need reach out to me. I try to work with anyone who wants it.
I have been playing music for over 40 years now. I began by teaching myself Fur Elise on piano as a child and continued playing music from there.
I have played French Horn with large symphony groups and small ensembles, trumpet in Jazz bands, guitar and keys in a rock band and have spent my life developing my song writing skills. I look forward to sharing the knowledge I have been fortunate enough to gain with you and your loved ones.
