I’m an intimacy coordinator who believes that storytelling is at its best when the people behind it feel safe, seen, and supported. After decades of working as a producer, director, and performer, I now help creative teams navigate intimate and emotionally charged scenes with clarity, consent, and care.
I recently had the pleasure of moderating “When Film Gets Intimate,” a panel conversation focused on intimacy in film and television, featuring Patrick Wilson, Alex Hall, and Dagmara Domińczyk. The discussion was generous, honest, and deeply rooted in lived experience.
The panelists spoke candidly about navigating intimacy on set, and we talked about how intimacy coordination can bring together clear protocols, intentional choreography, and consent-forward, trust-based communication to support authentic storytelling. When performers feel respected and supported, the work deepens. Performances become braver. The story itself benefits.
I’m grateful to Patrick, Alex, and Dagmara for showing up with such openness and care, and for opportunities like this to talk out loud about how we tell intimate stories with integrity, humanity, and trust.
If you’re developing work that involves intimacy, vulnerability, or emotionally complex material, I’m always happy to talk about how intimacy coordination can support both the people and the story.
Intimacy coordination is a natural extension of the work I’ve always done: creating environments where people feel safe, seen, and supported so they can do their most truthful, grounded work.
I bring a steady, human presence into sets and rehearsal rooms, helping transform intimate or delicate material into choreography that’s clear, repeatable, emotionally safe, and aligned with the director’s vision. When actors feel protected, the storytelling deepens. When the process is transparent, everyone relaxes. And when we honor boundaries, creativity expands.
