One Word that Best Describes Me: Optimistic

 

The NBCU Cable Entertainment star continues to rise, and Roberts is a big part of the reason. During the past year she oversaw negotiations including the season two renewal “Mr. Robot” on USA and “The Royals” on E!, an overall deal with Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail, and pilot to series deal for “Falling Water” on USA. She also worked with her team to place new emphasis on co-productions across the NBCU cable portfolio and closed co-production agreements with CBS Television Studios, Lionsgate, Fox TV Studios and Legendary, among others. 
