[Easemakers Podcast E21] From TV costumes to private service: being prepared for anything
Estate managers need keen attention to detail, great organization skills, and the ability to stay calm in the midst of chaos. Jean Weiss learned all of these things before her private service career — as a costumer on shows like Parks and Recreation. Tune in to the latest episode of the Easemakers Podcast to hear her story, and what she's learned along the way.
Jean Weiss spent 15 years in entertainment, doing costumes on shows like ER, The West Wing, and Parks and Recreation. Today, as an estate manager, she says her TV career prepared her for private service.
