Chief of Staff, Andy Cohen’s office at “Most Talkative Inc” and Correspondent for Bravotv.com, Bravo Digital
This former NBC Page who once rocked the gray suit that Kenneth made famous on 30 Rock now assists pop culture icon Andy Cohen and even created her own web series,”@sk Andy,” a bi-weekly program that she hosts and runs on bravotv.com. At the start of 2014, Cohen and Carp started production company Most Talkative, and she hasn’t looked back. And could we someday find her on GSN? “I have wanted to be a game show host since I was a little kid,” she says. “I am fascinated by the gameplay and how ecstatic the contestants are to be involved in something. Even if they walk away with nothing, it’s pure, happy TV!”
