Got to share a bit of my story with VoyageLA on my Birthday.

Growing up, I didn’t see Asian men get to be the leads, the heartthrobs, the complex characters. That’s the gap I set out to close.

It wasn’t a straight line — but seeing that vision become reality, one client at a time, is why I still do this.

Full interview link in bio.

Thank you to @deadline and @grobar for covering the launch of Juniper Rose Management.

From the start of my career, I’ve been passionate about championing underrepresented and underappreciated voices. I don’t just jump on a moving train—I understand the importance of building the foundation and rooting for artists from day one before the rest of the room catches on.

Named after my daughters’ middle names, @juniperosemgmt is built on purpose and a clear mission: lifting up and championing diverse storytellers who deserve to seen.

Thank you to my clients and everyone who has been so supportive over there years! Excited for the work ahead. #talentmanagement #diversitymatters

Booking the job isn’t the finish line. It’s a different set of rules.
Leverage, expectations, reputation — all of it shifts once you’re actually working. Most actors aren’t ready for that shift because nobody talks about it.
Save this before your next booking changes the game on you.

The right time to sign with a Major agency isn’t when you’re chasing them. It’s when they’re chasing you.
The actors who thrive at a Major agency didn’t get there by knocking on the door first. They got there because the door opened on its own — a breakout role, real buzz, multiple offers at once.

Follow for weekly advice.

I’ll be giving away my copy of Ari’s book Roll The Calls to someone in the comment section. Just follow, share and comment ROLL and I will choose one person to receive the book.

You can tell a lot about an agency during the signing meeting.
Not from what they pitch you — from how they walk in the room.
Swipe for my honest, one-word read on each of the Big Three. No PR spin, just what it actually feels like from the other side of the table.

Bigger agency, better career? Not automatically.
A big name gets you into more rooms. But if you’re the 40th person on your type at that agency, you’re not getting pushed — you’re getting filed.
A smaller shop with fewer clients in your lane can mean more attention, more advocacy, more submissions that are actually about you.
Size isn’t the metric. Fit is.

The work starts becoming real the moment you sign.
Not because someone believed in you — because now someone’s actively building something with you. Submissions, strategy, expectations. That’s a different phase than trying to get noticed.
Getting signed isn’t the finish line. It’s where the actual job begins.

Last night’s Emmys were a reminder of exactly why billing matters.
Every winner on that stage started as a co-star. A guest spot. A recurring role that turned into something bigger. Nobody skips the tiers — they just don’t stop climbing them.
So if you’re currently celebrating a co-star booking, or still chasing your first one — that’s not small. That’s the same starting point almost everyone up there had.
Save this so you know exactly what you’re building toward.

Comment BILLING if you want a breakdown of how pay scales across these tiers.

I’d rather watch ONE scene where you completely commit and own the scene VS. five or ten credits where you’re just there.

Stay tuned for Part 2.

Industry Inbox recently asked what I consider a green flag in which I would most likely respond to in a submission vs a 🚩for something I would stay away and delete.

Comment green flag if you want to hear more things reps might respond to in a submission.

Is it normal I haven’t heard from my manager this week? 

I get asked this constantly.

Short answer: usually yes. No news often just means no news — not that you’ve been forgotten.

Save this for the next time radio silence has you spiraling. 

Comment SIGNED if you want more on what to expect after you sign.
