Renee Sadono I've been in the film industry since 2009 and have loved every minute of it. I began my career at ABS Payroll in Burbank, CA. Initially in an entry level position, I learned as much as I could and was quickly promoted to the position of Payroll Coordinator. Within a few short years, I was promoted again to Payroll Manager. When I begin my work with ABS, it was with the intention of branching out into general, corporate accounting with the aim of becoming a CPA. When the opportunity to transfer to the company's accounting department as an accounting manager presented itself, I took it. I thrived in the accounting department and enjoyed the company and insights of the people I worked with immensely. I felt that something was missing though, and upon reflection I discovered that I missed the hustle and bustle of the client facing, film industry aspect of my role. Sometimes you have to try something new to appreciate what you left behind. For me, working directly with clients was something I was made for and I knew it. I did the best job I could in the accounting department and, when I felt I had done all I could do there, I decided to make a change. I applied at Cast & Crew to become
