“I joined TCA almost 10 years ago when I was just 15 years old and was very green to the industry. Reuben helped me on my journey to start auditioning for serious projects, which led me to quickly securing my first job less than a year later as a supporting role in the TV series ‘Nowhere Boys’.

 

Not only has he been there to support my journey, Reuben has always had my best interests at heart and not to mention been my number one fan helping me to succeed and achieve greatness.

 

Reuben has always been there day and night to help, whether I’ve been nervous for an audition or even stressed for a role. Even in times of struggle, he has remained reassuring and stuck by my side for anything I’ve had to go through in my acting career.”
