Squeen Holzen

Squeen grew up doing commercials as a baby and continued through her younger years until she became distracted with competing in gymnastics. During college, where she earned her B.S. in Mass Communication majoring in Journalism and minoring in Biology and Sociology, she made a list of "Things To Do Before I Die." She ended up working for a magazine publisher in sales and business development, before she realized that she wanted to accomplish some of those items on her "Things to Do List." She started crossing items off by moving to New York City and working for Lehman Brothers Investement Banking firm. Everyday she went to work, taking the catwalk from the World Trade Center to the Financial Center in manhattan. One day at work she was cleaning out some old files and stumbled upon her "list" which had everything from working on Wallstreet in New York City to being a stuntwoman in a movie. She decided that she'd never be a stuntwoman in a movie if she continued working for Lehman Brothers, so called her family and told them that she was going to quit her job to pursue a goal. They all called her crazy and told her to stay in Manhattan. Determined to accomplish her goals, she left New York, moved to Los Angeles and began her dream; started training again in gymnastics and taekwondo. Luckily she left her job four months before the 9/11 tragedy. One day as she was waiting for a friend who was in a fitting for an upcoming episode of a locally filmed TV show, she noticed this guy doing magic tricks. She observed and then commented that he was a good magician and asked if he could do some magic for her and help her get a job. He asked what she did, and she said that she was pursuing a career in acting but really wanted to be a stuntwoman in a movie. He said, "Hmmm.. funny. I am the stunt coordinator. Show me what you can do." Without a headshot and resume in hand, Squeen took off her shoes and did some back flips down the hallway. Impressed by her skills, he called her in to be on the show two weeks later and she ended up receiving her SAG card. ...so after all these years, she has reverted back to doing what she started as a child and has enjoyed every minute of it: showbiz!
