Heya, I’m Eleanor.
I am an award-winning actor, improviser and coach. I help performers and public speakers build their confidence and performance skills.
I specialise in voice work and re-finding the joy of connecting with an audience.
My Approach
Confidence and Joy
A confident and talented corporate tutor and performance coach. I bring my experience as an actor, voice artist, and improviser to my coaching and teaching work. My training and experience has equipped me with the passion and skills for the joy of spontaneity, voice, and the power of connection.
Learn To Love Your Voice
With experience in both screen and live performance, I work with clients both in person and online. I specialise in communication skills, confidence, spontaneity, and learning to love the feel of one’s own vocal and physical expression in performance.
About Me
I have been working as a professional actor since 2013. As an actor, I have toured Australia and New Zealand and appeared on both film and television. After graduating from the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), I also studied Long-Form Improvisation at iO Theater in Chicago. As an improviser, I have taught and presented at Improv Theatre Sydney, Big Fork Theatre, Impro Melbourne, New Zealand Improv Festival, and the Brisbane Improv Festival. As a Voice Over Artist, I regularly narrate audiobooks for Bolinda Studios.
I bring my skills and passion as an actor, teacher and voice specialist into the corporate training and facilitation work that I do. I enjoy working as a private coach as it is one of the most satisfying ways I can use my acting experience and training to make a lasting impact in people's lives, both professionally and personally. I specialise in confidence building, presentation skills, public-speaking, media training, and vocal health and safety.

I am forever grateful."

Steph Broadbridge, Creator of ‘Breaking The Musical’
"Eleanor has helped me with several self tapes and has made what can be a stressful experience very comfortable. She puts in so much more effort and intention than simply reading from the script. I would highly recommend Eleanor for any of your acting needs. A true pro!"

FAQ
-
Firstly, welcome! The first session is often the most intimidating so I make sure they are goals focused and joyful. Whether you are working on a project specifically or skills in general will then determine what happens next.
-
Pricing is per hour. Depending on the nature of the coaching sessions, and your timeline, a package might suit you best. (I promise fair rates and am always there to discuss what will suit your goals and your budget best).
-
The number of sessions we work together for is up to you! If you are looking to prepare for a particular performance, one session may be enough.
Generally, if you are looking to develop your skills and your relationship with your voice more sessions are required. I offer 6 session packages.
