Success Stories from Working with Jona:
“I just moved to LA two months ago (from London), and since [working with Jona], I’ve gotten myself 15 auditions, including Fox film and producer’s callback for a major CBS film…all this while being non-union and with no agent, something people told me was ‘impossible.”
-Rayman Jilani

“Using Jona’s innovative and cutting-edge tools, I have over 15 requests for meetings from agents and managers that I truly wanted to work with (ex. Innovative Artists, KSR, etc.), with only 2 student film credits.  We generated a target list and creatively packaged my submission to stand out amongst the rest.”
– Brian Chin

“I just booked 4 projects including 2 commercials and I just started 2 weeks ago!  Thank you Jona for helping me become a working actor in such a short time!”
– Deyne Umphress
