Matt Goldberg

New York born, Houston raised - Matt is a New Yorker at heart with the drive to match. His inspiration to move back to the city started young when his mom took him to see the touring production of Wicked. Sitting in that audience, he discovered the magic of live performance, and he’s been hooked ever since. Pair that formative theatre moment with a deep love of binging TV shows and movie nights, and it’s no surprise Matt found his way into a career where storytelling and talent take center stage.

Matt earned his BA in Acting with a minor in Arts & Entertainment Management from Pace University. While his acting career was short-lived, it gave him something even more valuable: firsthand understanding of what performers need, both creatively and professionally. He realized his greatest strength wasn’t being in the spotlight - it was helping others shine in it.

Matt began his career in casting before transitioning into the agency world as an assistant at Clear Talent Group, where he sharpened his instincts and gained invaluable experience advocating for talent. He later joined UIA as an Associate Agent, where he continued to build strong relationships with casting and clients alike, leading to notable bookings across television, film, and theatre. Now an Agent at Resolute Artists Agency, Matt is excited to continue championing artists and helping them build lasting, meaningful careers.

Whether he’s supporting talent, keeping up with industry trends, drinking a mango bubble tea, or catching up on the latest reality TV drama, Matt approaches it all with curiosity, humor, and enthusiasm.

Jaime Jacobs

Jaime Jacobs began working at Amerifilm Casting in 1997, where she worked on print, commercials, and helped with the extras casting for Sylvester Stallone's film Copland, fun fact she worked as an extra on the film too! She then worked as an assistant at DGRW Talent Agency for a year before working on independent films as an Extras Casting Director. Some films she worked on include On the QT with James Earl Jones and Dummy with Adrien Brody.

In 2000, she began working at Silver Massetti and Szatmary at the front desk, then moved up to assistant within the year. After Monty Silver’s retirement, Silver, Massetti & Szatmary became Leading Artists. Jaime left in 2005 to start a family and returned 10 years later. When Leading Artists closed their doors due to Covid, she worked as a manager at Unified Management for two years. Jaime’s path ultimately led her to reconnect with Donna Massetti of SMS Talent, where she is currently a Talent Agent.
