Ashaunti SammsAtlanta, GAYour new confidence mentor for anything acting, writing, and singing
I have completed two degrees in performance. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Theater where I completed the Performance Trak as well as the Stage Management Track at my undergrad, Wesleyan College. I have a Master of Fine Arts in Performing Arts from The Savannah College of Art and Design, where we mainly trained in acting for Film and TV, and I also trained in vocal performance. Acting is my forte, but my experience in musical theater productions, vocal training, and passion for music gives me the ability to also teach singing (mainly for younger children and beginning adults who want to find their voices). I've continued my own vocal training even after my MFA graduation in 2020 with the Nikki Maas Music studio, where we specialize in belting training for musical theater as well as pop-style music. I've been acting professionally since graduation- anywhere from extra work on TV shows/films in the Atlanta area, from regional theatrical productions to commercials, to indie films. I'm well versed in audition technique (because it is a SKILL that needs to be taught and developed, but it is not covered in the acting curriculum as much as it should be), how to record and create self-tapes, how to build your resume, and how to build your brand and network. I'm very passionate about performance, and I love teaching people who want to pursue the same passion as me. I have experience teaching the ages of around 5-6 years all the way up to high school age, as I was a mentor and counselor at a performing arts summer camp for 4-5 years in Atlanta, GA. I love teaching kids, but I'm open to teaching adults as well.
