This month we are delighted to welcome the wonderful Ramani Leah to our Modern Class of Casting Visionaries!

A California native who grew up in San Diego, Ramani found her way into casting while attending film school…and the rest, as they say, is history. Known for her standout work on the long-running series Criminal Minds and the Netflix hit My Life with the Walter Boys, Ramani brings both a sharp creative instinct and a deeply grounded perspective to everything she touches.

Jessica had the pleasure of working alongside Ramani under the banner of April Webster Casting, and it was clear from day one that her passion and eye for talent set her apart. When Jess stepped into her first role as head casting director, Ramani was one of the very first people she brought on board. Her intuition, and collaborative spirit have always made her an invaluable partner.

What makes Ramani’s journey especially inspiring is her experience navigating the industry as a young mother, balancing the demands of casting with the challenges and joys of parenthood. In an industry that too often puts career before everything else, Ramani has forged her own path with grace, strength, and intention.

In this episode we discuss...

• How Ramani started her career in casting
• Her journey working under casting directors
• Being a young mother and the challenges she faced coming up in the industry
• How the industry has changed in terms of casting film and getting approvals through the studio system
• Her outlook on the industry as it was and how it stands now
• Talent crushes and so much more!
