this week we have ATL actress Rae Derosa
Rae is known for her work on shows such as Amazon Primes “The Summer I turned Pretty” and Hulu's “Tell Me Lies.” She also stars in films such as Lifetime’s “My Professors Guide to Murder” and “California Dreamin’.”
She chats with us about how she booked her first guest star, why she tried out both NYC and ATL, and the realities of booking a big show and then transitioning back to life.
