About Me

My mission is to help launch the most valuable startups in the world: careers.

I help people land jobs and internships in the entertainment industry!

Services

As a public speaker and private coach, I’m here to help you make the transition from student to working professional with confidence. I’m an expert in finding what makes each person unique and aligning that with job opportunities.

 
 

COFFEE WITH KP

During the Covid Lockdowns, I hosted 174 Zoom group informational meetings I called “COFFEE WITH KP!” We spoke with industry professionals with interesting jobs as agents, managers, studio execs, camera operators, editors, attorneys, showrunners and more! They gave great advice and encouragement while sharing more about what their particular job entails. It’s a great resource if you are interviewing with a company and want the extra edge. It’s also, just a fun listen.

Zoom Courses

If you are committed to launching your career in the entertainment industry, get a replay of the 3 day course GET HIRED IN HOLLYWOOD (#GHIH) for only $250 with a founding subscription to my substack below. This course will help you clarify your career vision, show you what makes a resume stand out in all the right ways, instruct you on the best video cover letters and shows you how to build industry relationships (even if you don’t have fancy connections.)

Perfect for anyone who is committed to a long-term career in entertainment and is looking for expert guidance in securing an internship or job. Choose the highly personalized private coaching program that is right for you.
