Amber Havens: Casting Director
Amber has been in and around the entertainment business her whole life. Starting in children's theater at a very young age, she moved to LA at eighteen to attend a prestigious acting conservatory and start her professional journey. Leaning on advice she got at an early age to “do and learn everything possible about all sides of the business”, she has spent the last thirty years collecting knowledge and experience in multiple facets of the entertainment industry. She eventually settled on the production side of things and her extensive casting experience now runs the gamut of film and television extras, principals and commercial print and video. Amber prides herself on creating strong relationships with people and loves being a connector between clients and great talent.
Amber lives in the San Francisco Bay Area but spends a lot of time in Tahoe and her hometown of Reno, Nevada.
