After years of working in the industry of culture, arts, and television productions, in 2007 I joined the agency. I had the great privilege to work beside the late beloved Perry for many years.
While working at the agency I learned the world of talent management and actors guidance and combined my business skills along with the ability to identify and discover talents.
For me, the ability to nurture both new and veteran actors, with dedication and concern is the most important part of my work and I see that as my main focus, while constantly thinking about creativity and influencing the world of content and productions.
I continue Perry’s legacy and professional path, maintaining the agency’s warm and close relationship with our talents and keeping the violating connections between promising directors and aspiring actors. with constant thinking about the future and leading the agency to new and professional peaks in the culture industry in Israel and around the world.
