PASSPORT

With over 20 years of experience in the entertainment industry, I have established myself as a successful casting director with a proven track record. My strong relationships with my peers, agents, managers, and actors, combined with not only my extensive talent database, but my heart for people and our industry allow me to find and suggest the perfect talent for any project.

As a skilled professional, I am well-versed in technology and have the adaptability to meet the changing needs of the industry. My passion, motivation, and organizational skills have contributed to my success, and my diverse portfolio includes film, television, commercials, and animation projects.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with major studios and networks such as Sony and have seen my projects featured on Netflix, Lifetime, BET, Amazon Prime, and more.

Along with having one of the most talked about animations on Netflix, in 2023, two of my films are set to premiere at Sundance, which further demonstrates my commitment to excellence and dedication to bringing together the best talent and vision for compelling and impactful storytelling.
