These "talent agencies" have zero information on their websites. They're just advertisements. Does anyone have submission info for this agent?

NOTE:
Fletcher & Company's and all their agents were acquired by UTA, effective January 2, 2023.
Not sure how this will effect queries received in the weeks prior.

"Average response time is 4-6 weeks" Agencies really gotta stop putting stuff like that if they're not going to actually respond to most or all queries.

QT stats suggest she responds within 10 days if she's going to respond, so I'm going to go ahead and close this one. Best of luck to everyone still being considered!
