Working with Todd on my drama was a dream. He moved with such care, respect and a ton of joy. The way he articulates his mahi is tuned in, calm and present. Making everyone in the room feel good about themselves. He just gets it. And I'm here for it!

Todd has all the qualities required for this kind of deeply sensitive work. He is a clear and direct communicator, he has excellent personal boundaries, a natural ability for genuine connection, a deep sense of empathy and a gentle warmth and steadiness. As a person he instils a feeling of safety and trust in those around him. I speak from the perspective of an actor and a director. As an actor I would be grateful to have his safe, kind, clear self with me and advocating for me, as a director I would be grateful to have his skill, clarity and wisdom in the rehearsal room and on set.

Todd is a person of the utmost integrity. He always treats people with respect and without judgement. He has a unique ability to make everyone he is with feel at ease, which is an invaluable attribute for the delicate nature of the job of an Intimacy Co-ordinator.
Antonia Prebble, Actor

Todd not only brings forth a wealth of experience as an actor, but a focussed, generous spirit when working as an intimacy coordinator. On Raised by Refugees, Todd was working largely with our young actors facilitating intimacy, and first onscreen romance. What could’ve been a daunting, scary process was made easeful, clear, safely playful. They were held beautifully, and the romance rings true in the storytelling. Todd was instrumental in bringing to life our vision for the story. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Todd was my first time working with an intimacy coordinator so I didn’t really know what to expect. Turns out a coordinator can take you places with intimate scene work you might not have thought to go, making for a richer set up. This was made possible by his apt and respectful grasp of the material, not to mention a wholly agreeable bedside manner. It took a lot of pressure off, actually, and I would gladly work with him again!
