ALETA CHAPPELLE works primarily as a casting director but has always been interested in storytelling on a larger scale. She studied at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and then went on to cast films for Francis Ford Coppola who executive produced her directorial feature debut Goosed (1999).
Her most recent film Romeo and Juliet in Harlem (2015) was funded via a crowdfunding campaign and brings her back to her classical theatre roots.
