Tis The Season!


Greetings my fellow friends and family!

It's that time of year again...and wait a second...it's 79 degrees outside? What is going on?!!!
Oh, that's right, I'm in a completely different part of the country where the climate doesn't even budge. Well, it does slightly. There is a hint of fall in the air, with a few trees here and there attempting to give me a glimpse of what its like back home.

Being in Southern California is making me have mixed emotions, especially during this time of the year. The holidays are especially special to me because not only is it a time to be thankful for friends and family, it is when I decided to come into this world. Yep! My birthday. Its usually snowing, blowing or sleeting during this time, but instead it's beautiful, warm, and uh, did I mention beautiful? Yes, its nice...but it's just not the same.

I am currently working for this Christmas decorating business, where we go around and decorate for a lot of fancy businesses; hotels, law firms, banks, and also private homes. And as I unravel those balls of lights, it makes me miss the cold. Yes I said it...I miss the Midwest winter!

With all that being said, let me update you with the more important things:
- Yes I am working for a decorating business. This is their busiest time of the year. The guy who owns the business has been doing this for 17 years, and he makes enough money during the months of Nov - Jan. to sustain himself all year!!! He's also an actor.

- I recently signed with Steven Dry, with Schiowitz, Connor, Ankrum, Wolf inc. Theatrically. I'm starting to go on some auditions, and hopefully will get some work soon.

- I am also working on some smaller projects; a short "mocumentary" about life coaching. I'm submitting myself for student films so I can get some kind of reel together.

- I will be visiting the good old Windy City in two weeks. I will be there for my birthday, then make it down home for a few days as a holiday trip. I'm very excited to do this!! I will be in Chicago Dec. 10th - 13th then home in Millstadt Dec. 13th - 17th.

So as you sip your cups of hot cocoa, please think of me and know that my heart is not being warmed by the fire and hot chocolate, but rather by the southern California sun, and a vitamin water.

Much Love!

Update

I will be updating this soon....there are a few things for everyone to catch up on.
We are about to close "dark play." There are only two more performances left. I also signed with Schiowitz, Connor, Ankrum, Wolf Inc. for theatrical representation.
Finding a secondary job is tough right now, and that is my main task. Living the life of an actor just got stressful, and I now better understand the true lifestyle of a "struggling" artist.

...be back soon!
