The Rickey Smiley TV Show

Last week, I had the chance to work with Rickey Smiley and James Lewis in Rickey Smiley’s 2nd Season of his television show on TV1. I had three scenes and it was my first time doing that type of comedy, but I loved it. I also learned a lot about what certain writers want and got a chance to professionally grow my craft on set. There is something about learning, adjusting and succeeding under pressure. Can’t wait until the next adventure…

Live Industrial

I just booked a live industrial for Chick-fil-a. An industrial is for internal use only, and a company will hire actors for their training videos etc. But a live industrial is where the company hires the actor to play a role for any variety of reasons. So I was a test for operating managers for the company. It was hilarious to reveal our real identity at the end of the day. They were so consumed in my “made up life,” as I “applied” for a position with the company. I truely enjoyed my career that day and I have to thank my improv coach Eric Goins for helping me to be able to be spontaneous.  I look forward to many more projects.

I live/love IMPROV

So a few weeks back, I auditioned for an improv studies program at the Whole World Improv Theatre in Atlanta,GA. I got into the program and felt good about starting a new chapter in my career when three classes in, my instructor Eric Goins(Yes, I called you out) said I was ready for a show. I didn’t feel ready but I had no reason to turn it down. So I got on stage the next night and had a blast. It was so fun and freeing. I can’t wait to go back up there. Which will be atleast once a month… so get ready!

 

Signed with a New Agency

So after being denied some years ago, told “no” by other agencies, and signing with a small agency, I worked my butt off to build my resume, contacts and my reel so that when I tried again, I would not be denied. With that being said, I have just signed with Houghton Talent, Inc. in Atlanta, GA. I am thankful for my first agent who started me off and I hope to continue growing everyday and every audition.

ONWARD!!!!

SCAD Modeling

So I forgot that I was selected to be a model for the seniors at SCAD Atlanta and I went on ahead and accepted a role for a play. Unfortunately, I had a schedule conflict and had to retract my acceptance. So I will be fitting as a model for SCAD and will be in a huge fashion show this May in Savannah.

Arsenic and Old Lace

So after 3 whole months of not being on stage as an actor, I just booked the role of O’hara in “Arsenic and Old Lace.” This is directed by Jeff Page. The audition was so fun, I would have been happy with that alone. But I booked it so I will get to play the entire role. Can’t wait.
