“Andi gets it: she's an artist, she self produces, she hustles, she knows what it's like, and given all this experience, is such a good sounding board when you're trying to figure out what to do. She's been a great support.”
— Josh Glanc: award-winning comedian
“This is the best professional help I have ever received. In a business where it’s easy to feel as if you’re on your own, and that everyone is really in it for their own personal gain, with very little interests in the successes or goals of their peers, you were a shining beacon of positivity and genuine helpfulness and care towards li'l ol’ me. It was so great to have someone in my corner, encouraging me and cheering me on - and right from the get go, you understood where I was coming from and what I was (and am!) trying to achieve! Payment and emails will never truly encompass the gratitude I have for the help you’ve given me. No matter the result of this funding, I’m coming straight to you for the next one, as the information and knowledge is invaluable. THANK YOU.”
— Jack Earle (The Jack Earle Big Band): jazz musician, composer, producer
“Andi is an experienced artist with a wealth of knowledge on creating your own work. Making a solo show or any show can be an emotional roller-coaster, so having someone who has walked that path before you by your side is incredibly nurturing. Andi has been a great support in the development of my solo show ‘SPOT’. Speaking to her about the process has brought a lot of encouragement and clarity to my creative process. A must for all artists who are brave enough to put their work out into the world. She is a force of nature, full of inspiration, courage and wisdom.”
— Fabio Motta: award-winning performer, theatre-maker, clown teacher
“Andi is such a firecracker creative coach - she’s encouraging, supportive, smart and full of knowledge. She really listens and adapts to your working style and needs. Her excitement about your ideas and projects and belief in you as an artist helps you beat the self doubt monsters and leave each session feeling inspired and full of ideas!
“Each session with Andi has sparked my creative inspiration to the next level. The biggest shift I’ve had is completely transforming my attitude toward applying for grants, which has lead me to now not dread the process, but actually enjoy it! So grateful! I’d highly recommend working with Andi on any creative project”.
— Sarah Walton: writer, speaker, filmmaker
“As a mentor, Andi offers her multidisciplinary knowledge, industry experience and finely-tuned perceptiveness with an unparalleled wholeheartedness. Whether we’re discussing the creative process, the nuts and bolts of producing, or how to navigate the mental roadblocks of being an artist, Andi listens carefully, and approaches my story with reverence and respect. She is a massively encouraging force, and I am already able to apply insights gained from our sessions to my practice.”
— Charlotte Salusinszky: performer, writer, theatre-maker
“Best money I’ve spent in awhile.”
— Alice Night: singer-songwriter
“Andi is great at getting the best out of others in a way that really connects them with their soul purpose. My own transformation is beyond recognisable from where I started to where I am now. And I know that my best will burst out of me because of her.”
— Pam Wood: retired consultant, author
“Andi was really great in helping me craft a show pitch, particularly tailoring it to particular venues. She gave valuable feedback on everything from trailers to what to write in an email. Andi is patient and straightforward and her tips have been gained through many years as a touring and performing artist so it was fantastic to work with her and obtain her advice.”
— Ben Volchok: award-winning comedian
“I've loved being inspired by watching Andi's shows over the years and have been inspired again! New to the grant writing game, I contacted her in a panic that I'd left things too late and she was able to reassure me and keep me excited instead of overwhelmed! She also gave me thorough and honest feedback on what I'd written which has taught me so much! I thought my grant was good, NOW I know it is! I look back on my attempt of writing a grant last year to this year and am proud of how far I've come. I highly recommend this beautiful human!”
— Libby Brockman: actor, producer
“I just LOVED my session with Andi. Her intuitive, guiding tips and suggestions always felt completely in line with my own instincts. I believe that came from her ability to really tune in, and deeply listen to what I had to offer; which, I imagine, was at times a challenge to take in, because I would branch off on tangents, following my own urgency to make sure everything came out! But she stayed with me, listening, allowing me to flow, taking me in. And I think this is what I will find so helpful moving forward - Andi is fully there as someone who ‘gets it’ - the industry, the arts, and the love and passion behind it! Cannot recommend her services highly enough.”
