Thank you, Jackie Stolfi

The Coalition for American Production owes Jackie Stolfi a debt of gratitude. As Executive Director East Coast, Jackie gave countless hours to CAP and to the broader film and television industry. Much of that work happened behind the scenes: organizing people, building trust, running meetings, moving information, keeping members engaged, and making sure the coalition kept pushing forward.

CAP exists because the American film and television industry is facing a real challenge. Production is moving overseas. Jobs, vendors, local businesses, and creative work are being pulled away from communities across the United States. Jackie understood the urgency from the beginning and gave her time, judgment, and energy to help build a serious advocacy effort.

Jackie brought more than passion to the work. She brought the discipline of a producer.

Her career spans film, television, new media, independent film, animation, pilots, series, features, and festival work. She has produced more than 250 hours of content and worked on projects screened at Tribeca, Woodstock, SXSW, Vancouver, and other festivals. That background made her especially effective at CAP. She knows what it takes to get a project made, what is at risk when production leaves the country, and why this issue matters to crew, vendors, small businesses, and communities that depend on this industry.

She also knows how to get people moving.

Jackie helped turn concern into action. She helped build CAP’s presence, support its members, coordinate advocacy, and keep the coalition focused on the federal policy solution our industry needs. Her work strengthened the push for a federal film and television production incentive that can keep more jobs, investment, and creative production in the United States.

Coalition work depends on people who answer the calls, make the connections, solve problems before they become visible, and keep showing up. Jackie did all of that.

As Jackie steps away from CAP to focus on her next opportunity, we want to say thank you.

Thank you for believing in this fight. Thank you for giving your time and talent to CAP. Thank you for standing up for the workers, businesses, and communities that make American film and television possible.

Any organization will be lucky to have Jackie on its team. She is a producer, organizer, advocate, and problem-solver with the rare ability to move creative people, business leaders, and policymakers toward a shared goal.

CAP is stronger because of Jackie’s work. The industry is better because she showed up.

Please join us in thanking Jackie Stolfi for her service to CAP and wishing her well in her next chapter.

And to everyone who believes film and television production should stay in the United States: Jackie helped build this effort. Now it is on all of us to keep it going.

Small Steps Create Big Shifts

Confidence doesn’t always arrive with a bold entrance. Sometimes, it builds quietly, step by step, as we show up for ourselves day after day. It grows when we choose to try, even when we’re unsure of the outcome. Every time you take action despite self-doubt, you reinforce the belief that you’re capable. Confidence isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about trusting that you can figure it out along the way.

The key to making things happen isn’t waiting for the perfect moment; it’s starting with what you have, where you are. Big goals can feel overwhelming when viewed all at once, but momentum builds through small, consistent action. Whether you’re working toward a personal milestone or a professional dream, progress comes from showing up — not perfectly, but persistently. Action creates clarity, and over time, those steps forward add up to something real.

You don’t need to be fearless to reach your goals, you just need to be willing. Willing to try, willing to learn, and willing to believe that you’re capable of more than you know. The road may not always be smooth, but growth rarely is. What matters most is that you keep going, keep learning, and keep believing in the version of yourself you’re becoming.
