Introduce Yourself : Hello Stage 32 Community! by James Lagrimas

James Lagrimas

Hello Stage 32 Community!

My name is James, and my sister is Jaz. We’re both grateful to be part of the Stage 32 family, working behind the scenes as assistants supporting our incredible global community of creatives.

Jaz is the Development Services Assistant at Stage 32. She plays a key role in connecting writers with industry professionals across film, television, and digital media. Jaz has worked with hundreds of writers and executives worldwide, helping coordinate screenwriting contests and organize meetings that lead to meaningful creative collaborations and career opportunities. With her passion for professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail, Jaz has become a trusted liaison for both executives and emerging writers alike.

I’m James, the Education Assistant at Stage 32. I’m passionate about providing a world-class experience for members participating in our global education programs. I work closely with the Education team to ensure every webinars, classes, and labs delivers exceptional value, seamless organization, and meaningful engagement. I began my Stage 32 journey on the Development Services team, where I assisted writers and executives with questions and coordination and moderated hundreds of sessions to ensure they ran smoothly and on time. Today, I bring that same dedication to the Education Department, helping create inspiring and enriching learning experiences for our members.
