Why Christine?
For over a decade I've produced Off Broadway shows, worked in film, ran a live events company, managed artists and created my own talent agency. I have seen it all.
Covid changed the direction of my businesses and how I pitch everything. I believe that artists need to be very clear about what they can offer so that they can continue creating and thriving in today's market.
