Haley is someone you always want on your team: she’s resourceful, creative, and when she decides something must be done, she always finds a way to do it. Her unique vision is full of feeling and insight and her leadership is fueled by love of the work and a true commitment to the growth and success of everyone involved. –Heather Parish, Former executive director of the Rogue Festival
As an editor, working with a thoughtful producer who also crafts inspired scripts is a combination that is hard to come by. Haley is an incredibly talented, hands-on producer who puts in extra time and effort to make sure every project makes her clients happy. - Scott Anthony Coulter , Editor
Haley is an extremely talented storyteller. She's passionate about the art form and gives a shit about her projects far beyond the level that most people operate from.- Joshua Krause, documentary director/ producer
Haley has the perfect balance of professionalism mixed with the crazy creative ideas for today’s social media world. She holds a great understanding for the online community and really strives to create the best content for clients in their voice - to tell their story - in the best way that will resonate with their audience. - Johnna Johnson, Marketing Plus Accounts Director
Haley is the ultimate storyteller. She is compassionate, funny, honest and unapologetic. The skillful way she is able to translate her essence into her art and make it relatable to everyone is phenomenal. She strives for perfection in all that she does; her projects are always imaginatively conceptualized and fully realized. Knowing her has not only made me a better artist, but a better person.- Miguel Gastelum, Fools Collaborative board member
Haley is considerate and compassionate, intelligent and witty… a true creative. Her personality alone makes her a dream to work with, but then you see the work she produces, and it’s a done deal. Her social media work especially… she knows how to get right down to the brand’s unique voice and positioning, but still make it fun and push the boundaries. - Lauren Melenbacker, Marketing Plus Social Media/Trade Show Specialist
I’ve worked with Haley on many creative projects in the last 5 or so years. She produced a play I wrote recently and it meant so much to me—she amplified my voice, made me feel like me and my work mattered, and created a space for me to engage with my community. Haley is one of the people you feel lucky to get to work with. - Lia Dewey, Fools Collaborative member and grad student
Haley’s passion extends into everything she does and touches everyone who is lucky enough to be part of it. I had the pleasure of just such an experience while she was spearheading the monumental task of Director of Programming for Reel Pride for a couple years. She created one of the best programs we’ve seen in years. She set what I consider to be the standard of excellence for one of the longest-running LGBT film festivals in the nation. – Brian Carnes, former treasurer of Reel Pride Fresno
Haley has been an artistic lifesaver: brilliantly talented, wonderfully honest, with an unbelievable passion for the craft. The heart that she brings to every project is unmatched. The integrity with which she approaches her art leaves me awed. When I see her name on my phone, I answer. Well known, well respected and well liked. A true rarity.-- Tony Sanders, actor and director of SHINE Children's Theater
Haley is someone who not only has great ideas, but also knows how to execute them. She is a very skilled writer, director, producer and actor, but her creativity goes beyond mere technical skill. Her real prowess is her thoughtfulness and deep insight into her own heart and mind, and how that relates to the world around her. The willingness she has to lay bare her honest thoughts and emotions is disarming; that type of authenticity is often sought after, but seldom truly accomplished in a world of curated social personas. She is a true artist.- Dave Wilkins, filmmaker at Floodgate Productions
I am so deeply grateful to Haley, who saw something of interest in NOCO and the work we're doing in the prison. A long time in the making, she and I finally got a chance to work together- to go really deep into the history of NOCO... and my life. It was tough and intimate and so incredibly timed. Mine and Haley's lives have had some overlapping similarities, and she's been the exact right person to be intersecting with these past couple of months. This project she's done has literally uncovered and recovered so many of the treasures of NOCO. It's like she took time to hear things I thought no one would ever hear. Because I had no way to say them. THANK YOU, Haley.- Amy Querin, NOCO founder and Prison Arts Project dance teacher
I’ve had the privilege of working with Haley White on several occasions. Each time I found her to be kind and considerate; she always made sure I felt valued and that my time was being respected. She is an incredibly creative, well-rounded, and insightful director who utilizes her knowledge as an actress (as well as a writer) to empower her actors to make creative choices and feel honored in their work. –Jennifer Appleby, actor and musician
I have consistently found Haley to be a tremendous leader, a gifted scholar, and an amazingly empathetic artist. As a theatre practitioner, she is bold, inventive, and keenly focused on challenging the idea of what art can be for both herself and the community at large. Every event she coordinates and/or participates in is a step in a new direction, and she is tireless in her pursuit of innovation, exploration, and evolution of the form. She is also fascinated by and avidly supports the endeavors of others, learning from both their obstacles and their successes and working to develop new projects out of those experiences. All of this, combined with her engaged commitment to bettering the world around her, has made her a true firebrand in our artistic community and a potent force for change. - Chris Mangels, Professor of Theatre Arts at College of the Sequoias

Haley has been just a delight to work with every time the opportunity has come up. She is pleasant, considerate, professional and helpful. Highest recommendation! –Jim Tuck, actor
Haley is one of my favorite producers to work for. Even when she asks me to hang from the ceiling and swing above a popular NFL player.* -Kyle Lowe, filmmaker and actor (We might have made him hang from the rafters while faux-playing a saxaphone during a Derek Carr music video.)
I have never worked with an actor so intent on creating her role. Haley’s performance as Oscar Wilde (in Gross Indecency with TNE) was flawless. She captured the audience’s heart with Oscar’s genius, cynicism, love and ultimately complete societal rejection of a talented human born at the wrong time to be truly appreciated. Haley’s tireless attention to detail and the ease in which she shared the stage with all of us made this creative endeavor a joyous experience for all involved. Beside working with Haley on that play, I've had the chance to work on two local commercials with her where she helped everyone involved feel an important part of the creative process. Haley’s also shared ideas which has allowed me to create a performance piece, "Misogynists in the Dark". Without Haley’s imput, the work would never have been started. Haley is, without a doubt, a selfless talent who makes everyone around her, artist or not, happy to have her in their lives. - Thomas Nance, actor and writer
Haley booked me on my first commercial shoot, and she made me feel extremely comfortable and at home. She kept in constant communication about what would be happening and she showed warmth and hospitality to me throughout the entire shoot. She’s amazing!- Brishae Allen, Actor
Haley White is a detail oriented and thoughtful creative professional. Her unique perspective colors every aspect of her work. - Cody Fletcher, Filmmaker
Haley is passionate and has the vision to make things happen. She also has a heart of gold. With those things. she qualifies above all others but then she hits you with the fact that she is a beautiful singer, excellent actress, and incredibly funny lady, too. - Brianne Davis Anderson
Haley was astounding in our production of Honk! She portrayed [her roles] with perfect comedic timing. She’s not only a great actor to work with, but a fabulous person in general.– Bridget Paul, actor
