I started acting when I was about 12. I was always a fan of the movies, but I was always painfully shy. I got tired of not being able to speak to people, and mostly I was tired of not being able to speak to girls. I decided to take up acting as a way to get over being shy. I thought it would be one year, and that would be it. Little did I realize that the step I took as a way to pull myself out of my shell would lead to a passion that has lasted almost 30 years. I was pulled away from my passion for 15 years. In that time, I “wandered the desert” trying to find who I was and how I could remake my life into what everyone else thought I should be. I worked as hard as I could at being something else. Finally, after a long time away from acting I decided the only thing I could do was to find that person I truly am. I don’t know if I will get anywhere as an actor, but I do know I have to be authentic, and true to myself. If I just end up with a really cool hobby, so be it. At least I will be living a life I know is real. I invite you all to join me in this journey. The least you can do is watch me make a fool of myself (LOL)!!!
