Hello! Thank you for your interest! Quick history: I was a childhood model from aged 2 until 17. At 18 years old I worked as a talent agent for film / television/ stage at Leonetti Talent Agency in Hollywood for 9 years, then moved up from a talent agency to running the agency.The agency was dormant when I arrived at 18 years old Maggo Leonetti believed I could transform the old model agency from 1926 to film/ tv and stage . I did this with pure passion from watching my own childhood agent and reflecting ideas of change . I pulled the agency to the top of the Feild hired and fired and trained all staff . Kicked open the glass ceiling. As well as running the agency I was asked and sit on many non profits to plan and pull in influence entertainment company's and individuals to support their cause. Then 9 years later I was done at the top needing a new life change. I was approached by an executive for a job as casting director VP by Entertainment Partners, an Apollo owned company in Burbank, Ca.
