I first found my love for entertainment when I was 4 years old and I did commercials for my parents pizza shop in Erie Pennsylvania. I won an award for my acting at the local tv station there. I didn’t really have transportation so I was unable to pursue my career. When I turned 16 I got my own car and a job and drove out to LA from San Bernardino CA to take Shakespeare lessons and then I also got a part in Romeo and Juliet. It was one line. I drove up there 3 days a week for 2 months to rehearse. I was in haven. I went to college at 17 and started the drama club at San Bernardino Valley College. I stage managed many plays there and a couple at UCI when I transferred. I started directing scenes and full plays at UCI. I then directed some plays at community theaters and started my own theater called “The Rose Theatre” where I produced and directed several plays. I shut down my theater moved out to Hollywood and starting doing background and taking acting lessons at some of the best schools at the time. I directed acted in and produced many shorts and feature films it was great! I then studied script supervising and worked on projects almost everyday until I made it into the union. I had fun I really learned film making from a new point of view. And traveled to different countries doing what I loved. Traveling and filmmaking are my two favorite things. I enjoy meeting new people and filmmaking and traveling help with that. Entertainment is my passion and I love helping artists create and learn their craft. It doesn’t matter the type of artist. I love film because I feel like it allows every different type of artist there is to collaborate and create art. I like to write about filmmaking and any thing that helps an artists get inspired. Which is why I created my blog Filmactlove and my books and courses. Sometimes we need that help support and push to do what we do and I hope to offer all of this with education that makes you understand the process and yourselves better. I wish you the best of luck in all of your works!! And most of all I wish for you, to do what you love.
