Back and Forth

Life is crazy and throws you back and forth constantly. Especially when you are not sure what is the right decision for you in the moment and you have to make a choice. A little over six months ago I moved to L.A with the intention of it being a trial period. I'd live there …

Dear White Actors…

While working at a talent agency  I submitted actors to all the upcoming pilots (I was there to help during pilot season) as well as to upcoming films, and already existing projects.
