Though currently immersed in film production, Roxanne’s journey to Hollywood is quite different from so many others in similar positions. Hard work, determination, and a varied resume – including Walker, Texas Ranger and working directly for the Directors Guild of America – have all led Roxanne to her current role at Hidden Empire. We discuss how Roxanne came into the business, building HEFG’s diverse brand, the state of modern-day Hollywood amidst the #MeToo movement, and where she hopes to take things next.
