Roberto MontesinosDeveloper / Programmer
Working with Academy Award-winning players Cameron Crowe and Matt Damon, Roberto recently played President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela in the feature film "We Bought A Zoo" from Sony Pictures. After spending eight years in the US Navy working on (and sometimes inside) Nuclear Reactors, Roberto discovered the absolute joy of Acting and has not looked back since. There is nothing better - sorry to those who might disagree. Roberto came up with this iPhone App concept as a tool to help himself and other Actors with the often stressful audition process and was thrilled to work with a Casting Director of Danielle Eskinazi's level and accomplishments, and looks forward to working with others to bring valuable tools to Actors out there.

In addition to being a prolific iPhone Programmer, Roberto is a Professional Actor living and working in Los Angeles.
