5 years of living in LA will do a lot to a person. From my experiences here I have had some good, some bad, sad and a ton of good memories. When I moved here 5 years ago I pictured myself now in a completely different way. One of my goals was to be a working actress in TV/Film and to be a well known blogger. Which I have yet to achieve either.

I’m not mad nor am I giving up on that dream. It’s just funny how much time went by and how so much has changed. I felt like I was so grown up finally moving into a city I dreamed about for so long with my boyfriend. Within one year of living in LA I had lost my job, became Christian, and moved back in with my mom in LA who thankfully got a job offer in LA within 2 months of me losing my job. God works in funny ways and even though year one seemed to take a completely different turn I wasn’t mad.

I learned a lot about myself within the last five years. I learned that in life it’s okay to slow down, it’s okay to not feel okay and also that sometimes not everyone in your life stays long term. I also learned that it’s good to try new things and to get yourself out there. If you would of told me before I moved to LA that I would be involved in a church I wouldn’t believe you. My faith has been a huge part of my life since I started living here and I am thankful that God opened up my heart to him. My church community has been a blessing and I am very thankful that I even got to reunite with an old friend there.

As far as acting goes; I am currently working on updating my headshots, uploading new monologues, working on writing and completing my passion project this year. I feel like I wasted some time not working on my goals/dreams over the last 5 years but I feel like it was supposed to be this way. I feel like I’ve developed thicker skin and a new view on how to approach my goals. I am extremely thankful to be able to still be out here pursuing my dreams and hope to make some major moves this year. I think God for this opportunity and to my family/friends for their support too.

My first year in LA posing by the famous Samuel French which has recently closed. I’m so sad it’s gone it’s been a huge part of my acting journey since I started acting.
2nd Year in LA at LACMA
2015 working on a web series I co-created, co wrote and starred in. It was an amazing experience to create my own content and bring it to life.

This was one of my favorite memories ever! I got to visit the set of TEEN WOLF while they were filming their last season. Here’s a pic with Stiles’ famous jeep from the show.

In 2017, I completed 3 levels at Second City in Hollywood and I can’t explain how much fun I had here! I have never laughed so much in my life watching shows and doing improv in class. Took time off to focus on my wedding.
