TESTIMONIALS
"Working with Max is always a blast! While going through my monologues he was super helpful in reinforcing what I was doing right and analyzing what I could do better. Inside and outside our zoom calls he helped me with anything from selecting multiple monologues tailored to my person to finding the best 16 bar cut for my vocal abilities. I always find that besides his kind, fun, and caring personality he takes the time to bring out your individual strengths as an actor. He opened my eyes to acting choices that I hadn’t already considered. I have no doubt that my time spent with Max was beneficial; I learned new things, my monologues became monumentally more nuanced and proficient, and he helped me feel confident in my auditions."

"I’ve been working with Max for several months now, and I am so glad I did. I had worked with him briefly over the years, and knew I could trust him to help me prepare for my college auditions for acting/musical theatre programs. Max did not disappoint, and I have learned so much along the way! I could not recommend him enough."

"Max has been my acting coach since November of 2020 and we meet over Zoom once a week. He comes ready to work and provides a safe space to rehearse my material. It is amazing to have found a coach that I feel comfortable making mistakes in front of while I learn. He has an eye for detail and can think of the material in new ways that have allowed me to truly dig into my characters. He has also provided me with resources outside of our classes such as plays and books I should read that allow me to keep learning and to find different ways to think and approach a character. He has also helped me find audition material for my book. Max has a broad knowledge of the Musical Theater and Theater canon and has many ideas of what to work on next. On top of all that he is an amazing human being with a kind heart and a joyful spirit."
