Occupation | Fledgling Writer/Cinematographer, Videographer for hire |
Location | Longwood, FL, United States |
Introduction | I'm a graduate of FSU's film school. I had a plan to move to NYC and work up the camera dept. ladder, but it only took a few months for everything to fall apart. I went back home to Central Florida to pick up the pieces and find a way to achieve my ultimate goal of moving to LA and writing for film and television. I'm currently working as a videographer for a major cruise line and trying to find myself through extensive travel to fun locales. |

You've written a hit musical! How will you avoid having fame go to your head?
I'd be forced to surround myself with friends who knew me before I was famous, so they could knock me down a couple pegs if I got out of line. Also, living modestly would probably help.
