Private Coaching
Gabe's coaching philosophy was built primarily on the shoulders of three master teachers: Christopher Bayes (Master Clown teacher, and Head of Movement at the Yale School of Drama), Evan Yionoulis (current Head of Drama, Juilliard) and Ron Van Lieu (Former Head of Drama NYU, YSD, and current Professor of Professional Practice at Columbia). Gabe will work with you on whatever aspect of your work/career with which you are struggling and/or looking to deepen, with a special focus on audition prep, monologue prep for graduate and undergraduate applicants, and solo show development.
