Shannon Bobo

Casting Director • Actor • Comic • Reiki Healer • Activist for Survivors of Sexual Assault

In the labyrinth of career choices, I embraced the wisdom of a friend who said, "Why choose when you can have it all?" So, I embarked on a multifaceted journey that intertwines my roles as a Casting Director, Actor, Comic, Reiki Healer, and Activist. My diverse career is a testament to my commitment to utilizing a unique & rich skill set to make a positive impact.

With a foundation in casting, where I've served as an associate and honed my skills, I've discovered the profound ability to help individuals portray the best versions of themselves. My mission on this planet is to empower everyone to find their voice, and all my endeavors align with supporting this cause.

My background spans film, TV, radio, live performances, live video streaming, casting, and producing. Currently, I thrive both behind the scenes as a casting director and in front of the camera as an actor, host, and stand-up comic. As the founder of Shannon Bobo Casting, established in 2019, I oversee the casting process for various projects, ranging from on-camera commercials to Disney's LaunchPad Series on Disney+ and full-length feature films.

A proud member of SAG-AFTRA, I actively contribute to the LA SAG-AFTRA Sexual Harassment Committee. My lifelong ambassadorship for PAVE (Promoting Awareness Victim Empowerment) reflects my commitment to supporting survivors of sexual trauma. In addition to my professional pursuits, I'm crafting a book titled A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Forgiveness advocating for peace through forgiveness, self-love, and healing.

As a certified reiki healer and energy alchemist, I infuse my healing work with laughter, a driving force behind my stand-up comedy. With an overarching purpose to amplify voices, create a space for everyone to be heard, and contribute to the collective well-being through collaboration, empowerment and entertainment, I look forward to the sunrise every day.

Thank you for being a part of this journey.
