Milestones
My road in life has taken me all over.
Behavior issues in elementary school from being hyperactive. Was embarrassed by the teacher in front of the class. Found theater and singing and put my energy into that!
Not making it into the BFA acting program at CSUF. Instead of dropping out or doing general theater, I found communications, got an internship and now have an actual job in the industry.
Working in corporate events because it made more money—ended awfully. Found my way back to casting and thrive in what I love...with a rate similar to the events job.
