ABOUT
What is a college audition coach, and why do I need one?
A college audition coach is both a college counselor and an audition coach in one! Navigating the process of applying for performing arts programs at the university level requires acing not only your academic college application, but the prescreens and live auditions that come with a degree in the arts. A college audition coach specializes in giving resources to students interested in pursuing a career in performance! If you feel overwhelmed or unsure of where to start, a college audition coach will guide you through sourcing audition material, filming prescreens, scheduling in-person auditions, and selecting which program might be the right fit while helping hone your skills in performance!
“Jake truly understands the current climate of the Musical Theatre College Audition Process, and he is an expert when it comes to finding material that showcases the individuality of his students and what they hope to showcase. It was an absolute joy to work with him, and I am so grateful to have had his advice through the process!”
– Michael L, Ithaca College Class of 2028
What makes Jake different from other college audition coaches?
Jake is a graduate of Emerson College’s BFA Musical Theatre program, and currently works as a music director, accompanist, and educator in the Greater Philadelphia area! He is passionate about musical theatre history and performance theory, and is committed to the growth and success of the arts through its next generation of artists!
Watching his students get lost amidst large coaching companies with a stock set of audition selection packages, impersonal school selection recommendations, and hidden fees, Jake felt impassioned to ensure every student he worked with was given individualized resources and support to cultivate and showcase their unique talents! Jake is committed to working with a limited number of students each year to guarantee personalized coaching and financial accessibility.
