Meet Susan
She has assisted with casting and has worked for two different management companies, submitting actors for auditions. Susan has been trained in many different acting approaches, from Method to cutting-edge Hollywood techniques.
Six years ago, She decided to apply her skills and experience to help actors jump-start their careers. What Susan gives to new actors is what she wished she had when she started out: instant knowledge of how the industry works and a guiding hand.
As a coach, she has helped people find their voice, land jobs, and achieve their goals. She would like to help you do the same. Give her a call and discuss your ambition and needs. The initial 30-minute consultation is free.

Genuinely the BEST. Susan Collins' method of acting/teaching has taken me to the next level mentally with my acting career. I have a whole new perspective. I have attended school and taken many classes for acting and theater, but growing with BAI and Susan has been one of my best experiences yet. 😌❤️

To say that being a part of this group is amazing does not do it justice! Susan is so supportive and encouraging. In class we have fun, we share, we laugh, and sometimes get a little therapy mixed in :) Our events have been so much fun and we have so many ideas in the works. Can't wait to share our talents with everyone in the future! Thank you to our leader, Susan, and everyone else that is a part of this group. I feel grateful to know this group of stars in our small town.
