For those just getting to know me. I am one of those crazy multi-talented cats whos still trying to figure out how to focus all of this creativity . Previosly I've spent a year in Hong Kong playing Simba!
I also used to be a Jr. Agent at the Bloc Agency in L.A.
before that I was hitting the audition curcuit dancing, singing, commercials, hairstyling, assisting make-up artists,etc.... My journey has been unique in that i have done every possible kind of job that the entertainment industry has to offer. I've danced in music videos, and on tour with artists, sang on cruise ships, theme parks, background for artists, as well as lots of recording and songwriting, principal roles in commercials, musical theatre, televison and independant film, And some print work as well.My friends will tell you I'm hard to figure out but I think they would agree that it's worth all the work in the end. All in all I think I'm pretty geniune and the road getting to this point in my life has given me confidence in place of earlier insecurity and and chilled out my "diva-tude". I like to keep it real and not surround myself with CLONES or DRAMA! My tongue can be kinda sharp and I've been known to tell people the things that they dont wanna hear so only hit me up if you can stand to hear the truth!My family is originally from Michigan but I spent most of my childhood in Germany and California then back to Michigan for a while. I went to perfoming arts schools all my life I started out as a music major and discovered dance when i was forced to include a P.E. class. I then moved on to Interlochen Arts Academy, a boarding school (went to school with singers Jewel and Josh Groban) there I was a Ballet major. I eventually learned about how skinny ballet dancers needed to stay and I was OUTTIE!!! shoot I got bottie!!!
The rest of the story is pretty simple.... Headed back to L.A. in '93 signed with an agent, took class, scholarship programs.... blah blah blah I'm sure most of you are living out all the things that I did so no need to bore you with the rest of the details but at least you all now know what got me there.If i had any advice to offer entertainment industry newbies it would be to stay focused, work hard, be versatile, keep attitude to a minimum, keep changing till it works but make sure YOU stay YOU! dont take it too seriously (its just singing and dancing!), have fun with it, Remember why you're doing it and what originally inspired you (For me it was Madonna's Blonde Ambition Tour). DON'T COPY!!!! if you do your career will be short! Try to work EVERYDAY on any job no matter what the pay to build relationships. and be smart with your money!!!OK now that I'm done lecturing. Enjoy my page!! Hit me up! Email me, and all that! XXXXOOO!
