Work Background
Owner
Carlton, Goddard and Freer TalentOwner
Jan. 2012New York, New York, United StatesI established a boutique talent agency that continues to find new levels of success in both the NY and LA markets. I direct operations having set agency goals and spearheading business plans and initiatives that lead to ongoing goal attainment. This includes managing banking, payroll, HR, and union franchise and licensing compliance, which results in continuous sustainability and profitability. Within the two largest arts and entertainment markets, I search for and recognize growth opportunities, which in part comes from utilizing pre-existing connections within the film / TV industry to build new partnerships. Additionally, I am always looking for promising or renowned talent to become part of the firm, shaping, reshaping, or furthering their careers, while simultaneously enhancing the company's status within the industry. • To date, YOY growth is 10% with a profit margin of 38% • Talent managed includes Tony and Emmy award winners.

Clear Talent GroupNYC Director / Talent Agent
Sep. 2003 - Sep. 2011New York, New York, United StatesFor the LA-based talent agency, I oversaw the agency's expansion into the NY market and with determined leadership, the new office became a dominant entity within the arts and entertainment industry. The NY office primarily focused on musical theatre, choreography, and commercial dance. I identified casting directors and influential members in the field and created relationships that were crucial to clients having auditions opportunities for major productions / acts. I negotiated contracts with production companies that allowed clients to potentially star, feature, or contribute to high profile projects. Additionally, I was integral to bringing talent to the office / agency. • The NYC office established and was financially stable in under 12 months, which turned CTG into bi-coastal agency.
