Casting AP/Snr. ResearcherBelfast, United Kingdom
About me
I have worked in Unscripted TV for five years, and have gained a strong passion for casting compelling characters. I am skilled at social media, and in 2020, I founded The Casting Crew, a popular online casting profile that I’ve grown to a following of over thirty thousand people, from which I have created a tailored casting email & WhatsApp broadcast list for fast and effective outreach. As a Casting AP, I pride myself on the welfare of my colleagues and contributors and enjoy nurturing talent both on and off-screen. I’m known for being a hard-working and reliable team player who produces incredible stories. I am looking for Casting opportunities where I can learn new skills, expand my knowledge, and leverage my learnings before stepping up to Casting Producer.
