Selected theatrical credits include: Jersey Boys (Dancap Productions), Oliver (Stratford Festival), Hairspray, The Producers, Medea (Mirvish Productions). For Livent Inc. casting includes Ragtime (Toronto, Broadway, Los Angeles), Seussical (Original Broadway Cast), Fosse, ShowBoat, Joseph & the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, The Phantom of the Opera and Sunset Boulevard.

Sherry has cast several animated television series and she is currently working on Season 2 of the Family Channel hit show, Really Me.

Sherry is a proud member of the Casting Society of America and an even prouder mom to Jonah (grade 6) and Andrew (grade 3), both students at Paul Penna DJDS.
