tor and Winner of Best Creative Professional in 2008.
I was very fortunate to stumble upon the enter- tainment business. I truly enjoyed representing actors across the world. Having a hand in help- ing others reach their dreams was very fulfilling for me.
What is a good early story about your business? The best story would have to be how little I knew about what I was getting myself into. I seriously thought I’d just start a site, blog about some products I loved and use that as my outlet. I was in for a rude awakening.
