My Coaching Methodology: Preparation Enables Presence
Floyd Collins during previews last week. Incredible!
Core Philosophy
My professional coaching approach is built on a fundamental principle recently highlighted in a New York Times article about acclaimed performer Jeremy Jordan. Director Jeff Calhoun said of Jordan: "He does the work beforehand so he's free to be instinctual in the moment." This sentiment perfectly captures my coaching methodology.
With foundations in direct practice social work, International Coaching Federation (ICF) professional coaching, and improv comedy training, I've developed a coaching approach that balances thorough preparation with dynamic responsiveness. This methodology creates a coaching environment where structure and spontaneity work in concert rather than opposition.
