I began my casting career when I joined the fifth season of Nickelodeon’s hit sketch comedy show, All That in 1998 as a casting assistant. Since then, I worked to cast two more seasons of All That, two seasons of Zoey 101, season four of Drake & Josh, the final seasons of Kenan & Kel and The Amanda Show as well as projects for Warner Premier Home Video, Fox Family Channel, Disney Channel, Discovery’s FitTV, TV Guide Channel, Noggin and Comedy Central. I am a proud member of the Casting Society of America.
In addition to my work as a Casting Director, I'm also a Director - most notably an episode of Zoey 101 andthe special event episode of iCarly,"iSaved Your Life". And I recently wrote, produced & directed video content for www.Nick.com called Extra Scoops on Turbo Nick. I am also a member of the Directors Guild Of America.

Workshops / Seminars / Classes
A quick note for PARENTS AND STUDENTS about workshops, seminars and classes: On occasion, I am invited to attend events around the country, serving in different capacities. For instance, I may be asked to audition & evaluate students, provide industry insight or just make recommendations based on my experience. I work very hard to only attend events for companies which I believe have the best interest of their students at heart. However, I cannot be responsible for how they conduct their business or how they market their classes and seminars. While I may be attending an event for a company, I do not necessarily endorse their products, services or classes. I am simply an invited guest.
In the past, there have been allegations of companies using my name (and the names of my colleagues) in connection with events in which we have no knowledge of - and no plans to attend. Below is a complete list of the events I am scheduled to attend. If you hear of my name being used in reference to any event not listed below, I invite you to contact me immediately at the email address at the bottom of this page.
