THEA

WASHINGTON

A proud member of the Casting Society of America (CSA), Thea's work resonates deeply within her community, particularly highlighted by her impactful contribution to HBOMAX's "We Own This City," which not only showcased her casting prowess but also her commitment to generating local employment. Her collaborations with industry luminaries, including Grant Wilfley and Allison Hall, have been instrumental in creating over 3,000 job opportunities, showcasing her dedication to fostering talent and economic growth in her hometown.

But Thea's influence extends beyond the casting call. As a devoted mother and fiancée, she exemplifies balance, weaving her family life with a thriving career. Her civic engagement shines through her active participation in Baltimore's Arts & Culture Council and her role in the "Shining Stars" program, which she founded to inspire young minds in Baltimore City Public Schools, opening doors to the world of film.

Thea's passion is palpable in her advocacy for women, emerging filmmakers, and underrepresented voices in the industry, driving her to create opportunities that promote inclusion and diversity. Her ethos of leading with kindness and casting with integrity is more than a motto—it's a reflection of her approach to her craft and her vision for the industry's future.
