About Adam

I’ve been acting professionally since I was 6 years old, and after more than 25 years in the entertainment industry, I’ve had the opportunity to experience nearly every stage of what it means to be a working actor — from auditions and callbacks to starring roles, major productions, live performance, music, and years spent working on professional sets.

I’m best known for starring as Luther on Disney XD’s hit series Zeke and Luther and as Wen in the Disney Channel Original Movie Lemonade Mouth. My other credits include Pair of Kings, Hulu’s Freakish!, Jonas, Titus, The Shaggy Dog, How to Eat Fried Worms and additional television and film projects.

Growing up as a professional actor gave me an education that goes far beyond what can be learned in a classroom. I’ve worked alongside talented actors, directors, producers, and crews and learned firsthand what it takes to prepare, perform under pressure, take direction, make strong creative choices, and remain confident in a highly competitive industry.

I’m also a recording artist, songwriter, and live performer. Music has given me another perspective on performance — finding your individual voice, connecting emotionally with an audience, developing confidence, and learning how to be completely present when the spotlight is on you.

Now I want to take everything I’ve learned throughout my career and use it to help the next generation of actors.

I’m especially passionate about helping young actors because I know exactly what it feels like to enter this industry at a young age. I understand the excitement, pressure, rejection, preparation, and persistence that come with pursuing this professionally. I also understand the questions parents have when their child wants to enter the entertainment business.

My goal as a coach isn’t to turn students into copies of another actor. It’s to help them discover what makes them unique, strengthen their natural instincts, become more confident on camera, and walk into auditions prepared to make memorable choices.

Whether you’re completely new to acting, preparing for your first audition, working toward professional representation, or already auditioning or working on a project and want to take your performances to another level, I want to help you become the strongest and most confident version of yourself as a performer.

After a lifetime spent doing this, I’m excited to pass that experience forward.

My lessons are built around the same skills actors need in real professional TV and film environments. After spending years working as a professional actor on major television and film productions, I want to help actors develop not only their craft, but the confidence and preparation needed when the opportunity actually comes.

Every session is tailored to the individual actor, their experience level, and their goals. Whether you’re preparing for your first audition, working on an important callback, filming a self-tape, developing a character, or simply trying to become more confident and natural on camera, we’ll focus on what will make the biggest difference for you.

I can help you with:

• TV & film audition preparation
• Self-tape coaching
• Scene study and script analysis
• On-camera acting technique
• Comedy and dramatic performance
• Character development
• Cold reading and making strong choices quickly
• Confidence, presence, and authenticity on camera
• Callback preparation
• Working professionally on set
• Guidance for young actors and parents navigating the entertainment industry

My approach is practical, supportive, and honest. I don’t believe every actor should perform a scene the same way. I want to help you discover what makes YOU interesting on camera and strengthen the instincts that make your performance feel natural, specific, and memorable.

Having worked professionally from a young age and experienced auditions, callbacks, series television, feature films, music, and life on professional sets firsthand, I can also offer perspective that goes beyond traditional acting exercises. My goal is to help you understand what it’s actually like when you walk into a professional environment and how to be prepared for it.

All experience levels are welcome. If you already have an audition or self-tape, bring your material and we can work directly on it. If you’re newer to acting, I’ll meet you where you are and help you build a strong foundation step by step.

Most importantly, this is a judgment-free environment where you can take risks, make mistakes, try different choices, and grow.

Let’s get you ready for the room, the camera, and the opportunity.
