With my wealth of experience with over 26 years in the recruitment industry, I have a natural instinct to discern talent and determine the best fit for each role. I can put myself into the candidate’s shoes, seeing their casting search from their perspective and help them through all stages of the recruitment process.
For clients I can offer detailed and considered help and advice to ensure productions will have the most appropriate team of actors for every role. I find today’s talent to create tomorrow’s success with a focus on well-being, balance and calm.
