Post About Me

I am not usually one to blog, but considering the career path I have been following lately it would make sense to reach as many audience members as possible. After all, pursuing acting for television and film is basically marketing yourself. While this hasn’t always been my long term goal, it is something that I have very recently realized I have high potential in, so I think it is best to go at it full force ahead. I never thought that I had it in me to take the risks associated with acting, but since beginning this journey I have come to realize that I am more than willing. Discovering this drive to succeed at what I love to do has made me even more excited to uncover what level I can take this to. I never had anyone’s full support when it came to acting. Obviously that paired with my naturally introverted qualities made acting professionally something that always seemed out of the cards for me. I always enjoyed it, but was told that it was fine to see as a hobby, never a career. But since abandoning it a few years ago, I began feeling something was missing, nothing was getting me truly excited for the future. Then one day while taking family photos, our photographer friend offered his services to me for free if I ever decided to do headshots. So with the thought of free headshots (very rare) and the hunger for something more, I decided to go for it. He helped me get in touch with one of the most reputable acting agencies in Arizona and from then on I was itching to get going. My agents instilled in me a confidence that I had been lacking, they told me not only was I entirely marketable, but I had a real talent that they could use. That was all I needed to hear. Since getting an acting coach who knows the industry well, I have come to realize that if I push myself hard enough I can complete so many goals. I am lucky to have found people who believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. Originally I didn’t think I would ever act again, but now I am thinking I need to act forever. I am hoping I can go as far as possible with it.
