The Team
Who We Are

Teri Ritter
Owner & Talent Agent
Teri came to the industry with over 30 years’ experience in strategic planning and accounting. This, coupled with her industry experience as the mom of a busy actor, has allowed her to get to know the industry from the ground floor up.
​
Originally with Hines Management, Teri opened her own agency in August 2017. During the 18 years that Teri has been an agent, she has seen her roster grow and develop into a strong group of actors that are regularly being called in by top casting directors in Toronto, Vancouver, and LA.
Her actors can be seen on many series, feature films, and commercials that are being shot and produced in North America and abroad.

Maya Ritter
Talent Agent
Beginning at the young age of 10, Maya spent a decade in front of the camera as a principal actor. Even at that age, she was intrigued by the magic of movie-making and regularly sat with crew to observe what it took to create a film.
​
She knew early on that this industry was her true calling and decided to explore other avenues of it in her mid 20’s, which landed her the position of principal agent, side by side with her mother and founder of the agency, Teri Ritter.
​
She has a genuine love of the industry, and is deeply connected to the creative aspect of it. Her goal is to create a symbiotic relationship between herself and her talent based on communication and trust. Her focus is to help carve out pathways for her actors and maintain a high performance mindset throughout the process.
Maya works with both union and non-union actors and is keenly interested in helping each actor set new metrics for their careers.

Mike studied Theatre at York University, majoring in Directing. He founded a theatre company while at York, Rhythm Productions. Right away, Mike realized he had an eye for talent and for casting the right actor for the right role. He loved helping actors grow and achieve their best performance.
