With decades of experience across TV, film, stage, and voiceover, we’re here to support your growth, nurture your artistry, and help you bring your most honest, compelling work to every audition and performance. Our approach is grounded in practical tools, thoughtful guidance, and a deep respect for your unique journey as an actor.
Sharon started her career as a model in New York City at 18.
Given the wrong casting info, she walked into an acting audition for a feature. She didn’t get the part but the director, spotting her potential, encouraged her to keep pursuing the craft of acting.
She quickly enrolled at the renowned Herbert Bergohf Studios in NYC and started her journey.
Sharon was an instant pro in the commercial industry and immediately started booking multiple commercials. She has appeared in more than 40 commercials over the span of her career – in the US and abroad – and has been fortunate enough to work in the European film market as well as in US independents.
Always honing her craft, Sharon has dedicated herself solely to the PATH™ technique, and has found a freedom in performing and deep fulfillment in helping others reach their personal goals.

“I’ve done years and years of training, in addition to being exposed to PATH™ for almost 3 years now, and it has been life and career changing. I no longer give people what I think they want. I give them ME. I’ve realized that is my superpower because there is only one me and he’s pretty awesome! Who fully understands what actors go through? Other actors! And I want to see you win! So let’s win together!”
