Hi, I’m Anna-Kay, but friends call me “AK.”

As a Producer and Creative Development Executive at Love Productions USA, I work with a talented team to develop and produce unscripted formats and documentary series for network, cable, and premium streaming services. Our clients include Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, Paramount Global, NBCUniversal, Fox, and more.

Love Productions USA is a division of the UK-based Love Productions, which operates under the SKY umbrella, with an impressive portfolio of thought-provoking and addictively watchable programs across all genres and platforms, including the extremely popular formats, “The Great British Bake-Off,” “The Great British Sewing Bee” and “The Great Pottery Throw Down.” At Love USA, In addition to original domestic and international show concepts, we create distinctive format adaptations for US audiences spanning across food, competition, reality, social experiment, crime, sports, and more.

After a decade in the industry, I am deeply proud to have a proven track record in short-form programming, daytime television, and unscripted entertainment. But my journey to entertainment has certainly been a wild one!

Originally from sunny South Florida, I am the only child of a rockstar single Jamaican mom, so it’s fair to say that she taught me hustle by example. I worked my way into magnet arts middle and high schools and then to Dartmouth, where I studied Neuroscience and was on track to go to med school. Fast forward to my senior winter when I had the gut-wrenching realization that I was making a HUGE mistake. My heart and soul weren’t in medicine. What was I doing and more importantly, WTF was I going to do with my life now that my perfect life plan was unraveling??

I dug deep and remembered that my real passion had always been art, storytelling, performance, and all things entertainment and pop culture.

So, I decided to take a giant leap of faith, and after college I moved to New York to pursue working in the entertainment industry. I accelerated at my day job working in Financial Services – all the while side-hustling to catch a break in entertainment. Then, years of grinding paid off.

In 2014, I won a national VH1 competition to be a reporter alongside Nick Lachey. That incredible opportunity led to more, and I have since hosted digital shows for Condé Nast and Buzzfeed, covered The Oscars, GRAMMYs and Tonys for The Hollywood Reporter and Billboard, and written for Penguin Random House’s young-adult and millennial division.

Life changed yet again when I moved to Los Angeles to help launch Steve Harvey's Emmy-nominated talk show "STEVE.” During my first year at “STEVE,” I worked simultaneously as an Executive Assistant and on-camera talent for the show's daily ‘Hey Steve’ segment in addition to hosting digital content for SteveTV.com. I was promoted to Associate Producer for the show’s second season.  

Following “STEVE,” I joined Condé Nast’s L.A. office where I produced, directed, and developed digital video content for iconic brands like Vogue, GQ, Vanity Fair, and Architectural Digest, featuring celebrity talent like Kim Kardashian, Renée Zellweger, RuPaul, Liza Koshy, and Octavia Spencer. I also produced and directed celebrity-driven videos on dating and relationships for Tinder featuring talent like Issa Rae, Kumail Nanjiani, and Daniel Kaluuya.

Outside of making (or let’s be honest, binge-watching) shows, I am obsessed with travel (17 countries, 28 states, and counting!), tennis, interior design, and my eternal queen, Beyoncé. I have also been a nationally ranked Slam Poet and a Miss New York USA contestant.
