My life is taking a strange twist of fate coming this September. Besides the overall obvious circumstances with the film incentives officially going away in Michigan, I must take my craft and fight to the next level. Michigan has been fantastic to me thus far in my journey. This is my home. It's where I landed my first lead role as Red in Ashes of Eden. I've starred in commercials and music videos that shot in Michigan. I must take this fight to the next level. I've said it before and I will say it again. TO GET WHAT YOU'VE NEVER HAD YOU MUST DO WHAT YOU'VE NEVER DONE. I have thankfully landed an agency in Atlanta and I am still looking for a place to stay as well as a job to keep me a float. I am very happy to announce that I will not be going through this journey alone as I have a great friend and amazing actor Talon Quinn coming with me. Talon resides in Missouri right now. He and I starred in Surrender together.

After speaking to a few very well established actors out of LA and Canada I have learned that Atlanta is quickly becoming the new place to be as an actor. Without naming names, a friend in LA who has acted in ever marvel movie known to man as well as any other major blockbuster has personally told me NOT to come to LA. Most of his friends and colleagues are making changes to get to Atlanta as well. I'm so exited for this change in my life although It's going to be hard to leave my girlfriend, family and friends.They're all extremely supportive of my dreams and want nothing but the best for me and my goals.  I'm well aware that the months to come are going to be some of the hardest times I've ever faced in my life. I would much rather fight and struggle for what I need with my life than go to a normal job 9-5 for the rest of my life. It's very true, the moment you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe then you'll be successful. Here's to freedom and life. Here's to taking risks and making every second count. Here's to chasing what I want with my life. Here's to the fight to help make a difference not only in my life but for everyone in my life. Here's to fight for my fathers last words to me "I know you'll be a great actor someday." I love you, I love the fight. Thank you God and thank you to my girlfriend who is so supportive. She is such an amazing strong person to be okay with me to do me and fight for what I want. I know It's a risk but It's going to be worth it!

Love the fight
Love God
Love LIFE!
