Life and career edit

What you haven't seen [in the trailer] is the show is a lot of fun. That's what you haven't gotten to see [yet]. What Jake [McDorman (Brian)] does, he's really funny, and brings a sense of fun to it…I think a big thing is the casting of Jake. Obviously we loved the movie, but Bradley's character, Eddie Morra, is kind of self-serving: he takes the drug, he writes this book, he becomes a stock broker, makes money, [sleeps with] women, and in a TV show, you're not going to root for that guy.[6]

—Kadin, on Limitless (2015)

Kadin was born on August 7, 1972, in Scottsdale, Arizona. Before being President of the production company, K/O Paper Products, she was an executive producer at ABC.[7] Kadin had previously worked with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci together at ABC, where as a drama executive, was involved in J. J. Abrams' spy series Alias, on which Kurtzman and Orci were writer-producers since the first episode.[7] For a brief time, before joining ABC, she had worked at the television division of Shady Acres Entertainment, which at that time, was based at Touchstone Television.[8] She had left Warner Bros. Television where she served as vice president of drama development in 2010.[7] Kadin worked with Kurtzman and Orci on the WBTV-produced Fringe, which Kurtzman and Orci co-created with Abrams.[7]

Kadin served as executive producer of Sleepy Hollow (2013-2017),[9][10][11][12][13] Matador (2014),[14] Scorpion (2014-2018),[15][16] and Limitless (2015-2016). She executive produced the TV movie Exit Strategy where she worked with David Guggenheim, Kurtzman, Orci, and director Antoine Fuqua in 2015. Kadin executive produced the TV movie Tales from the Darkside where she worked with Joe Hill and director Bradley Buecker in 2015.

Kadin worked as co-executive producer on Star Trek: Discovery (2017-2024) with Kurtzman for CBS.[1][2][3][4][5][17] She also served as an Executive Producer on the short-lived CBS series Clarice in 2021.
