Emmy-nominated executive producer Amber Mazzola has long been on the cutting edge of the reality television genre. Literally. The name ‘Machete’ was originally Amber’s nickname in post for being so creative in piecing together the content of her shows. After years of mastering the art of storytelling on hits like The Millionaire Matchmaker and Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D List, Amber launched Machete Productions in 2011.
Machete Productions immediately produced back-to-back projects for E! Entertainment and Style Network including: Pretty Wild, The Dance Scene, Dirty Soap, and Fantasy Family Makeover. Amber and Machete then went on to develop and produce CNBC’s hit original series, The Profit, featuring Marcus Lemonis, which was nominated in 2018 for the Critic’s Choice Award in the Structured Reality category. Currently in production on season 6, The Profit is the #1 original series on CNBC and has revolutionized the business genre in reality television. Further expanding their relationship with CNBC, Machete produced a spinoff with Marcus called The Partner in 2016 and is currently in production on a new series in partnership with Michael Strahan called Back in the Game, which helps broke former athletes launch new successful business ventures and is hosted by baseball legend Alex Rodriguez.
