> Reads scripts personally: I generally read script submissions myself, however, I will at times then ask another one of my associates to also read it, since
our office takes a team approach to representing clients.

I personally am a 3rd generation agent, who believes in the old school values of Hollywood, and believe that our Agency is still run to this day guided by these values.
