CASTING
I moved to LA in 1996 and quickly pivoted into casting. I'm best known for casting television's GILMORE GIRLS. I've also cast theatre, indie film and over a decade of pilots.
I gave Rami Malek his first acting job. He and I have different versions of our first meeting. If you'd like to hear his version, click below.
TEACHING
I started teaching workshops and private coaching while casting. Then I segued to my own actor's collective for four years. From 2017-2020 I taught in the acting dept for Hussian College. I continue to guest teach in studios in Chicago and Los Angeles. I've been coaching privately since 2006.
We had the pleasure of meeting a young Chris Pine in 2002. We did all we could for him when he was starting out and he's continued to thank us throughout his career.
