Just catching up

It's been a busy few months. Here's a brief catch up:

In March, I signed with a new agency for both theatrical and commercial representation, First Class Talent, and I got a callback for a national commercial through them. I also was signed as a promotional model through Productions Plus and worked as a receptionist at the Porsche World Roadshow in April.

May was a busy month. The trailer to the short film Asshole Robot was released and I'm excited to see the completed version soon. The pilot episode of the webseries Tute Voller Kinder was also released online, and is also being featured in the Hollywood Fringe Festival as the lead-in short to the cinematic feature. Check out the details for its 4 screenings and how to get tickets here.

I was thrilled to land a role in my first American Film Institute (AFI) short Home, directed by Eric Yandoc. I played the role of a young pregnant mother. AFI has a great reputation and history, and I am happy to be making connections there.

Just a few days ago, I played the role of Dale Arden in Flash Gordon as part of the 4th AFTRA Radio Play (ARP) at the Autry National Center. See David August, who played Flash, and me before the show.


I've also been working on marketing myself as effectively as possible. Updating my website, finessing my online casting profiles, attending workshop, screenings and other networking events, have helped continue the branding process, and expand my network of contacts. I'm also working on narrowing down my target list of casting directors that I want to get to know and attempting to streamline and target my brand.

With the goal of getting some new targeted looks in my portfolio, I got some new headshots this month from Bradford Rogne, who is amazing. Here are two of my favs.
