The Kitchen has named Dina Behar to the position of VP of Business Development.
Based in Los Angeles, Behar will be directly responsible for broadening the “Hollywood” business for the international language localization teams, working directly with key contacts in the distribution, production, and studio side of the business.
A ten-year veteran of the language services industry, Dina brings with her a wealth of knowledge, having forged strong relationships with such well-known entities as The Jim Henson Company; A&E Networks; DHX Entertainment; Starz; Lionsgate, and Netflix during her tenures at SDI, SPG and Deluxe.
“We are thrilled to have Dina on our team. I’ve known her for a while, and know of her professionalism, dedication, follow-through, and thorough understanding of our ever-changing business,” explained Alexis Cárdenas, VP International Sales.
“Joining The Kitchen team gives me huge aspirations, as I rekindle relationships, forge new ones, and broaden the scope of where our team is headed. I’m excited to join this aggressive and respected team and look forward to an exciting future for all of us,” commented Behar who is fluent in Spanish and looks to enlarge the scope of The Kitchen’s Latin American business as well. “Early in my career, I worked for Univision, Fox Sports en Español and Globecast North America. This gave me a true understanding of the network side of the business and has allowed me to expand my own client base.”
