Founder / CEO
A former protégé of legendary ICM agent Sam Cohn, Keshishian showed an early knack for spotting talent from her very first signing, which happened to be an 11-year-old Natalie Portman. It’s no surprise that she currently boasts an enviable client list working across every lane of the entertainment industry, including Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Selena Gomez and Jesse Peretz. 2024 was a big year for Keshishian and Olivia Rodrigo, a client that she signed in 2022. Rodrigo toured on the sophomore album, “Guts,” that she released in September 2023. Keshishian served as a producer on the “Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour” concert special that dropped on Netflix in October 2024. As a manager, Keshishian has been particularly active in the branding and endorsement space, as well as in documentaries.
