I REFUSE TO LOSE

About Me

update 4/27/08..moved to LA (Canoga Park)..the purpose? to find my purpose. to exercise my faith and abilities. to move closer towards my goals of writing screenplays and motivational speaking. the wheels are already set in motion. after 5 days I've been blessed to find a place to stay and a church that I truly can fall in love with. I eat workout pray and look for my ideal job while pursuing my dreams....I was born in Richmond, CA and grew up in Tacoma,WA. After high school I went on to Washington State University. I made my way into broadcasting at age 19. Working for radio stations (KFOX, KIRO, KJR)in Seattle, I got bit by the acting bug and moved to LA, doing extra work in movies and commercials and television.I moved to Sacramento in 1991. I managed and purchased CareerPro Resume Services for 5 years. After two years in the healthclub industry I went to work in the mortgage field in 1997. Now,I just love to write..it's time for me to take my dreams to the next level!!I have conducted seminars in the finances,real estate, job search and been a member of various boards and committees. I have worked for and conducted motivational seminars and written serveral short stories often aiming at motivation and faith!!I am publishing several books in 2008. My first project is titled "I REFUSE TO LOSE". I am looking to collaborate with others in the screenwriting and film making arenas. I am determined to become a motivational speaker. I wan to gvoe where there is none.I have 3 beautiful sons(Marcus nearly 20, Nolan 17 and Amari 4). I find them each intriguing and determined in their own way. I love being their dad.

Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully." ~ Anthony Robbins
