A Good Story

In whichever medium,  a good story is one of the most inspiring things to me.   From my favorite childhood book, The Little Engine That Could, to my favorite film, Jurassic Park, listening to, telling and experiencing stories made me want to act and inspire me to dream.

Travel

My greatest passion in life is travel.  I love experiencing cultures, language, landmarks, different environments, and seeing the world.

Education

Education is something that I really value,  enriches me, and can't be taken away.  I continuously aspire to be a perpetual student in all walks of life and to never stop learning.

Music

Music has always been a large part of my life.  Both listening and creating.  90's alternative grunge is my favorite, but I listen to everything.

We all have a lot of things that motivate and move us.  I thought I'd share some of those things with you that inspire me.

Socializing

I'm a very extraverted person, and while I do need my 'me' time, swapping stories, meeting new people, and experiencing life with friends/family ties all of these other passions together.

Creativity and Art

Creativity in whichever sense is a must.  If I'm making something, I'm golden, if not, I'm yearning to build new.

The chance for an actor to be whichever character that they want to be and cast themselves.  Simply lush.
