nager, I often would go to the movie theater to escape my reality. Pretending that I was in the movie, after all with the huge screen and loud sound, it sure felt like I was right there! especially when it felt so out of reach. Eventually I was was hired to do some commercial work, as well extra work with a well known actress. Let me tell you, after seeing what it looked like to be on an actual movie set.. the lights, the cameras, getting to witness a scene unfold, it was magic and man was I HOOKED! Fast forward to the summer of 2022, something just clicked.. I was so tired of being in my own head, tired procrastinating the idea, waiting for the perfect time to start. At the end of 2022, I landed my very first short film The Mechanic as lead. Shortly after that I came to realize, that I was in my own way. There wasn't going to be a single person or reason that was going to stop me from going after this career. Today I am actively in acting classes and scouting out talent agents for representation, in hopes to working my way into bigger films and television series. Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a little about my journey!
