Creating Opportunities for thy Self!

As some of you may or may not know, I'm living in LA pursuing a career as a tv host--ultimately I would love to help create, produce, and host my own travel show!!! Sounds like a dream job, I know.....but I'm determined to make this my reality.
Now it's not easy. You constantly have to work, practice, study, work, practice, study some more....while "networking"---La La Land can be a crazy place, and often there are people who say a lot, but don't do a lot---false hopes and promises. Luckily, I don't let this get me down! I accept it as it is, keep on plugging away, and don't wait around hoping to be discovered. Got to be proactive! I run around with my camera, as my own camerawoman because it is a lot of fun!---and it's practice.
So here is a little hosting demo reel I put together......this is for you Travel Channel.

To creating our own opportunities--cheers to a good life!

What the Heck is Bonnaroo????

Good friends, good music, and one hell of a good time!!---this is Bonnaroo in a nutshell. Situated on a 700 acre farm (yep that's right), this music festival hosts over 150 bands, and nearly 80,000 people come together to enjoy these festivities.
Year after year I am so fortunate to meet up with a core group of friends, some whom I only see for this occasion, and every year I make a handful of new friends. Undoubtedly one of the greatest highlights of my year! And what made this year extra magical, aside from a couple of incredible people I met, is that my parents made the trip down---how cool are they???

Good friends, good music, AND family....??? Truly life is sweet :)

And cheers to that friends,
