Of the move, Segal shared, “Our mission at Strig is to provide comprehensive representation focused on creative freedom, overall fulfillment, and personal growth for artists. A strig is the footstalk of a leaf or a flower and the true connecting piece within a plant – I find this to be so meaningful. As managers, we are the connecting element in all facets of our clients’ careers.”

Before Authentic, Segal worked at Generate and Independent Artist Group (formerly APA). He launched his career as an intern at the Los Angeles-based production company Misher Films before venturing on to The Collective, APA, and Generate, where he built his first list of clients.
