I am a born and raised Los Angeles, California native. LA is currently and will always be home. I have been fortunate to see the magic of the city as an entertainment juggernaut up close in radio, television and film.
Time and opportunity have ushered me into the entertainment industry. I should have recognized the signs early in life.
My high school may still be the only public high school in Los Angeles with a complete TV production studio. Every student had to write, director and production their own series on TV commercials and newscast as class assignments. The on-air talent and the technical staff were pulled from our classmates in order to complete the broadcasts.
I wrote, produced and staffed my productions but I selected another classmate to direct while I served as on-air talent because I knew I could nail the copy. Well, be the end of the semester, I had served on-air for about 75% of the productions.
