About Emily
I am an award-winning Australian actress working professionally across film, television and theater. I graduated from the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA), one of Australia’s leading drama schools, and have worked internationally in both screen and stage productions.
My screen credits include Sissy, I Hate Kids and Ladies in Black, and I have been recognized for my work with festival awards and nominations. Alongside acting, I am passionate about mentoring young performers and helping them develop strong foundations, confidence and professionalism.
I understand both the creative and practical sides of the industry, and I aim to guide students with honesty, encouragement and clear direction. My goal is not only to improve performance skills, but to help young actors build resilience, discipline and a healthy mindset around auditions and training.

My private coaching is designed for young actors who are passionate about developing their skills and building confidence for film, television and theatre.
Each lesson is tailored to the individual student’s age, level and goals, which we would discuss on the first session. Students may bring scenes, monologues or audition material to work on, or I can provide carefully selected scripts that suit their strengths while gently stretching their ability. We focus on clear storytelling, emotional truth, character development and building strong, grounded performance skills.
For students interested in professional training, I also provide guidance for drama school auditions including NIDA, WAAPA and VCA. This includes monologue selection, interview preparation and building confidence in high-pressure audition environments. For screen work, I offer practical self-tape coaching so students understand how to present themselves clearly and professionally on camera.
Lessons typically run 60–90 minutes and can be ongoing skill development or focused audition preparation. My aim is to create a supportive, structured environment where students feel encouraged, challenged and proud of their progress.

Emily is a highly skilled and dedicated acting coach who brings both professionalism and warmth to her work. She has a wonderful ability to connect with young performers, building their confidence while developing their technique and performance skills. Her work ethic is exceptional, and she creates a supportive, focused environment that brings out the very best in her students. I highly recommend her for private coaching and drama school audition preparation. Jackie Hallahan Director DDCI’ve known Emily through her work as an actor, and what stands out is her strong understanding of performance technique and storytelling. She has real experience in script analysis, character development, and helping performers connect truthfully to a role. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for thoughtful, skill-based drama coaching.
I know Emily through working together on two films, and she is a terrific actress and an incredibly thoughtful teacher. She creates an environment where you feel comfortable taking risks while still being challenged to do your best work. Having worked in teaching and professional creative settings for many years, I can confidently say Emily’s approach is both rigorous and genuinely supportive.
Emily is such a deeply knowledgeable actor and filmmaker, giving her a unique edge as a drama teacher because she knows not only the technical aspect of drama, but also how to get to the heart of the performance. Emily has also trained with a number of world-renowned teachers, which gives her insight into various techniques. Absolutely recommend!
