I was so touched knowing that everything I have sacrificed and have continued to work hard for is shedding upon others. So far that is my greatest achievement; To motivate others to never give up.
Tell us about yourself and what you do?
I am a small town girl, living in the city with a big heart and all the dreams and aspirations to be the best person I can be. I am a working actress, finding new adventures everyday striving till I accomplish all of my goals toward success. I keep God first in everything I do. I love fitness, cooking, and eating. LOL. I am a fitness blogger, I do it as a motivation for myself and to inspire and teach others about the wonderful health benefits of being a vegetarian.
Who has inspired you in your life and why?
My mother. As many storms that she has weathered through in her life, she still continues to be the most humble and graceful person I know. She has the most warming spirit I know to walk this Earth and she never fails to teach me,or let me learn the hard way, what’s right from wrong. She understands me to the ‘T’ in almost everything I do, and has never once judged me in anything I have done.
What is your greatest achievement so far?
This morning at the gym an older gentleman approached me explaining, “One of my friends that I come to the gym with every morning told me today when you walked past us that you are her motivation.”
I almost cried in that man’s face! I was so touched knowing that everything I have sacrificed and have continued to work hard for is shedding upon others. So far that is my greatest achievement; To motivate others to never give up.
Do you have any tips for our readers that are trying to break in the industry?
SAVE YOUR MONEY. I know how hard it is to struggle for months and then you get a big check in from a film or television show you just booked. The first thing you want to do is spend away all your worries. Do not make that mistake. Save like that check had never even came in the mail. Have patience, your time will come.
