About me
I have a very colorful background in film and TV. I would be a great fit to your team. I have worked on all levels of budgets and shoots. I am extremely organized borderline OCD but in a good way. I am super efficient and have no problem stepping right up to the plate. I am great at delegating and working with PAs. I am looking to a position that is secure and solid work. I would love to contribute to the success and efficiency of your company.Taking care of their needs before they even have to ask is my specialty. Working as the Contestant Coordinator for Project Runway and The Face is a role like a 3rd 3rd AD. You have to be in tune with all the movement of filming, timing, cues and be able to work with all ranges of personalities.I have worked on Beat Bobby Flay. Eden's Eats, Laura Live a pilot for Food Network. As well as a 6 month run with Chef Roble and Co. As the AP on Roble I had to scout, barter, manage and coordinate all the fine details of all locations including housing not only an large production team but also coordination with culinary team building a kitchen at various event spaces through out NYC. Having got my start in Locations in indie films and then episodic TV I always manage to find the right fit for the show. I have a lot of great contacts for a variety of locations and sites for shooting. I also keep in mind the vision of the director along with the other departments to ensure the smoothest shoot possible. Locations you are the ground work to help create the foundation of the physical space to work for all departments to create the best show possible and have to keep every faucet in mind.
Working as a Talent Coordinator I arranged all the travel for all my contestants and know the in and outs of booking flights, car service & smooth travel. I am never afraid to pick up and shoot. I have worked on all types of camera's.I am great with logistics for coordinating smooth travel, booking & shooting on off site locations. As well as finding gems that will fit both the directors vision & productions needs. Having experience working from episodic, extreme low budget film to multimillion dollar commercials. This give me a very unique voice in film & TV. It has also shaped me to really think out of the box and find savvy new ways to resolve last minute problem. Along with keeping in budget.
I have worked with all various kinds of talent, helped in development of story from script to screen. I excel under pressure and I am a great team player. I adjust with ease to last minute demands and changes. It's a must in reality TV since they happen on a daily sometime minute basis. I have worked as a casting scout for The Real World. Bad Girls Club & The Voice. I also helped with all the casting for Chef Roble & CO for Bravo this past year. I have a great eye for talent and personalities. I would love to be part of your project. I handle pressure with grace and strive in the collective chaos of TV Production. As well I have been known to create a great prank or 2 to keep people laughing and morale up during high stressed times.
