Anouncing our third Fireside Chat!

After a month hiatus, Argentum will host our third Fireside Chat on Tuesday, June 6, 2006. MaKenzie Moore, founder of Triniti Management, will be here to talk shop and answer questions from 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM.

MaKenzi began as an assistant at the Dorothy Day Otis Agency in the Adult Commercial Department. She moved up as the agent for the Youth/Young Adults Commercial & Theatrical Department, becoming the youngest Screen Actors Guild franchised agent in Los Angeles. Under MaKenzi's supervision, the youth division grew to include many commercials, guest stars, co-stars, and even series regular roles on such shows as "Baywatch Hawaii". After her tenure at DDO, MaKenzi became an agent at the Amsel, Eisenstadt, and Frazier Agency. MaKenzi headed to the Youth/Young Adults Division, where she was responsible for booking her clients on hundreds of projects for tv, film, and commercials. In 2002, MaKenzi joined the ranks at The ESI Network, first as a talent manager, then as V.P. of Talent, and eventually was promoted to ESI’s President.

Triniti Management was formed by MaKenzi and her sister, Marissa Upchurch, after their departure from ESI. Triniti handles some of the brightest rising stars in the industry, including Michael Lawson (People With Money, Chi Chi’s), Sara Swain (13 Going on 30, Starsky & Hutch), and Drew Matthews (Bernie Mac Show, Everybody Hates Chris, Toyota, and Febreeze) just to name a few. As the co-owner of Triniti, MaKenzi is excited to manage her elite list of talent with an eye for detail, and a focus on each talent's career.

If you’d like to attend our chat, please send an e-mail to chats@argentum.com by Friday, June 2, 2006. Space is limited and spots will be filled in order of RSVP.
