Emma LaChance is Co-Founder and Head of Development at new production company Regen Media, focused on transforming the climate conversation from crisis to opportunity through subversive and irreverent storytelling. She began her career at Lionsgate during the days of MAD MEN and ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK before moving to the producer side, most recently as part of the development team at Yellow Bird US, which specialized in international IP and premium dramas.
Emma was AWESOME! She really helped me with insights and suggestions for my writing and script, which when applied, will greatly enhance them. Emma was very kind, knowledgeable... It was an honor to meet her.
