Hey! I'm Jordan.
Iām aā¦ Creative, I guess? Actor, Musician, Coach, Teacher, Photographer...
But my biggest driving force is helping actors.
Ā
As a working actor, I've landed 13 years performing inĀ Blue Man Group,Ā 4 seasons onĀ The Walking Dead, roles onĀ HomelandĀ and more. But my favorite work is helping actors strip away the noise and rediscover the joy of acting.
My work blends the precision of on-camera technique with the playfulness of theater, helping actors rediscover theĀ surprises of the craft, even when working through a screen.
I ran a studio for a decade teaching group classes and helping actors book roles from co-stars to series regulars.
I now work (mostly) out of my home studio and connect with actors all over the world, in different age groups, and atĀ all experience levels.
Everything I teach is designed to feel like we're in the room together.
As seen on...
Ā
Hereās how Iāve builtĀ my training to feel as personal and hands-on as possible.
Video Feedback
Every session, every class, every assessment is recorded and video-based (with transcripts) so that we can get as personalized as possible. No generic cut and paste feedback here!
Weekly Check-Ins
Don't fall through the cracks! Each week, we'll get together to discuss how you're doing and what you need to do next to reach your goals. Accountability buddy!
Weekly Classes
Community is key! Get together with actors all over the world to discuss industry, mindset, technique, and engage in self-tape challenges for feedback.
Scheduling Transparency
You get full access to my calendar and can block off time with me. Questions, coaching, insights... you set the time and I'll be there!

You're not alone.
Whether it's private coaching, audition taping, or my online classes, your individual needs and goals are the center of my focus.Ā
Why do I put so muchĀ time intoĀ having it feel 'in the room?'
Well...
Story Time.
I never wanted to work virtually.Ā (Did any of us?) Every class I've ever taken has been in the room... The sanctuary of the space, the ability to interact with my peers, the feeling of personal commitment with every scene or exercise.
But then the world shifted. And I, we,Ā you... evolved.
Ā And in many ways our artistry expanded. We, as artists, are meant to be a reflection of society and the human condition.
So, when the world told us toĀ figure out how to do this through a screen, that's exactly what I did.
I don'tĀ give lectures. I lead exercises. I don't speak in theoreticals. We explore ideas. I don't believe there's a black and white way to be guided through anything in this craft. Instead, I help the actor paint with whatever paints they bring into the space.
Collaboration, exploration, intuition, and confidence are incredibly important to me and that's what is instilled into every facet of what I teach and how I teach it.Ā
Virtual or not? My goal is to connect with the artist and give them tools to explore on their feet.
Back to what I was saying...Ā
Here are the services I provide actors.
Ongoing PrivateĀ Coaching
Weekly (or more) one-on-one time to harness technique, overcome challenges, build strategy, pursue goals, and feel confident in your craft.Ā Buy a bulk package to save.Ā (Time can also be used for auditions.)
Virtual Audition Coaching/Taping
Got a juicy one coming up? Or seeking fresh ideas and new perspectives? Or want new auditioning tools in real time? InĀ 20-90 minutes, you'll walk away with an auditionĀ and new tools.
Courses
On-DemandĀ CoursesĀ led by me, for you, that useĀ personal check-ins, video assessments,Ā weekly classes, and individualized focus for a year to to elevate your audition and technique game to the next level.
Ā Ā
Ā Ā All of these prioritize:
- Trusting your interpretation, while helping fill in gaps
- Naming the tools that are working vs the tools that need to be revisited
- Valuing exploration over perfection
- Industry-standard strategies
- Sustainable mindsets and goals
Ā
This isnātĀ coaching where youāre talked at. Itās a collaboration where youāre coached with.
Actor to actor,Ā find a coach who works with you, not at you.
I also offer...
Headshots
Just like my acting philosophies,Ā I value exploration over perfection. In a casual home environment, we'll play rather than pose and let the camera capture something special. (in Atlanta, GA)
Custom Clips
Need a clip to fill in a gap on your casting profile? I will write, direct, film, and edit a short clip that keeps all of the focus on you, meant to look like it came from a larger project.Ā (in Atlanta, GA)

Me again.Ā Quick note...
I do this out of love, protection, and inspiration for actors.Ā
I've seen actors face hard times (myself included), so I aim to keep my prices reasonable.
I've seen actors be "taught" by those with outdated or partial information, so I stay transparent in my teaching.
I've seen actorsĀ fall into despair, so I share my own struggles and challenges in the industry to help build resiliency.
I'd love to work with you. If you're looking for a creative to have on your team, I'd be honored to be your guy.
