ABOUT

I have been a Casting Director for 35 plus years and I have cast over a 100 successful film and television shows. Along with my business partner, Catherine Stroud, I have cast many notable actors and actresses at the beginning of their careers who have all gone on to become stars; such as Miley Cyrus in Hannah Montana, Jonah Hill in Grandma’s Boy, Emma Stone, Katharine McPhee and Kat Dennings in The House Bunny, Selena Gomez in two Disney pilots - What’s Stevie Thinking and Arwin, Mark Ruffalo in the CBS series, Due South, Jennifer Aniston in her first feature, Leprechaun, Yara Shahidi in her first television series, The First Family, Brad Pitt in an episode of the series, Freddy’s Nightmares, Megan Hilty, Adrian R. Mante, Cierra Ramirez, Victoria Justice and Joey King in The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Noah Centineo in a Disney pilot, Growing Up and Down and Tom Kenny, Jennifer Aniston, and Paul Feig in the Fox sketch comedy series, The Edge.

​

I have cast many genres of film and television projects from comedies to dramas to thrillers to family friendly films. These include a number of movies for Adam Sandler’s company, Happy Madison Productions such as the comedy classic, Grandma’s Boy and The House Bunny. The faith friendly film, Mr. Manhattan starring Carlos PenaVega and his wife, Alexa PenaVega was #1 for weeks when it streamed on Great American Pure Flix. 

​

I also work with many independent filmmakers helping them to get talent attached to their movies to get them into production. Besides originally casting the successful sci-fi thriller, Freaks, I also cast the sequel, Freaks Underground with a talented cast of upcoming young performers. Both of these movies were written and directed by Adam B. Stein and Zack Lipovsky who directed the mega smash hit, Final Destination: Bloodlines. I also cast the upcoming film, Perfect Girl which stars Arden Cho (KPop Demon Hunters), Adeline Rudolph and making her acting debut, Jeon Somi who is a very well-known K-Pop star.

​

I enjoy sharing my knowledge and wisdom that I have gained over my many years as a casting director. My passion in life is to help actors and to get them on their path to success. Whether I am casting, teaching classes, coaching or helping you with your career, this is what I love to do. I am so grateful to be part of your journey and inspire you to win in your career.
