Working on set for Oprah Winfrey Networks “Queen Sugar,” celebrating my hometown on NCIS: New Orleans and the movie “Girls Trip” with Jada Pinkett-Smith and Queen Latifah has been a mind blowing experience. Dreams and miracles really do come true.

I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up, with the help of MyCastingFile.com I don’t have to. I can go from nurse, to crime scene investigator, to Purger all in one week. I can even time travel!

I come from 20 years in corporate America and MCF allowed me to experience a completely different industry and do something so far outside my comfort zone that I was inspired and amazed and wanted to do it again and again. I never knew I had a creative side and it’s never too late to learn!
