Over the years, I’ve received so many DMs from aspiring and established models and performers asking for advice. From how to get started in modeling, find an agent, navigate SAG-AFTRA, and find casting opportunities, to getting feedback on portfolios and reels. I’ve also heard from people interested in building a career behind the scenes in casting.
I’ve always done my best to respond to as many messages as I can, and I genuinely appreciate that so many of you reach out! But, as much as I’d love to help everyone, I do have to work, too! 😂 And sometimes, messages get lost in the shuffle.
I’ve been looking for a way to offer more guidance and mentorship that works with my busy casting schedule, and I’m happy to share that I’ve started working with TalentED NYC (@usetalented) career mentorship program for creatives and talent!
Through TalentED NYC, you can book one-on-one sessions with me based on my availability, choosing from 30, 60, or 90 minutes to ask questions, get advice, and talk through your career goals. There are also group sessions available!
Some of the topics we can explore together include:
✨ Breaking into the modeling industry
✨ The dos and don’ts of modeling
✨ Exploring a career in modeling or casting
✨ Understanding how major fashion and beauty campaigns come together
✨ Building a career behind the scenes in fashion
✨ Understanding how casting directors discover and select talent
✨ Navigating commercial and editorial modeling
✨ Getting professional feedback on your modeling portfolio
✨ Standing out at castings and auditions
✨ Understanding what major brands and casting directors look for in talent
✨ Navigating the business side of the fashion industry
Whether you’re just starting out, looking to take the next step in your career, or simply have questions about how the industry works, I’d love to connect and help you navigate your next move.
I look forward to meeting some of you and answering your questions! (Booking Link in Bio)
And a big thank-you to @antoniostephon for the photos! 📸
