I started in this department as casting intern, then I became a casting assistant, and then I moved up to be a session director. During my time in casting, I met about 1.000 actors. Some of them were in big franchises, like Harry Potter, Narnia, Game of Thrones, Mission: Impossible, The Crown, Star Wars, and The Hobbit.
