My 7+ years working with Zoe and Jake have been some of the most important and formative years of my life. Zoe and Jake have an astounding ability to foster real tangible growth in their students, not only as actors but as people. Over the course of single terms I have watched myself and my classmates grow to extents I would not have thought possible after the first class. Both Zoe and Jake have a true love for the craft of acting and performance, a love which they are able to pass on to their students in a profound way. I have always found a deep sense of community at the Acting Center which has extended on past my time there, this is thanks to the values of opportunity, respect, and discovery Zoe and Jake bring to the work. For this and everything they do, I will forever be grateful.
