My mom/sis reminded me that 1 yr ago yesterday I premiered on Season 1, Epi 4 of @americansoulbet as high profile lawyer & civil activist #JohnnieCochran. It was an honor 2 embody Mr. Cochran & deliver a message still relevant today. Here’s my #BookingBackstory. I hope it inspires & motivate others 2 take action on their goals & dreams. Infinite thanks to...@azureetalentagency got me the audition in 09/2018. @gpierre722 allowed me 2 self-tape while working in Orlando. @diana_love_xo helped me self-tape 2 scenes, she committed 2 helping me make sensible choices 4 the scene, my energy & the time period overall. @gpierre722 again 4 the notes from my 1st audition & asking me 2 come back N the room 2 re-tape, but he allowed me 2 self-tape while I was in LA working. @ms_scorpiotiff my friend n LA, helped me get around while I was N town working on her film. She drove me 2 #Goodwill 2 buy business attire b/c I didn’t pack any. She also dropped me off @ my #TTGFamily’s crib w/ @jayfifty & @thepatrickwalker who helped me tape the audition a 2nd time based on the notes. These fellas looked out & gave me feedback that was 💯. Time flys by I get a #DIRECTORSSESSION callback for Wednesday 10/3/2018 N the evening. No clue who the director is but I recognize his voice when I arrive. I’m called n2 the room & it’s THE #Legendary @iamroberttownsend. I was HYPED! I grew up watching #HollywoodShuffle & his other projects w/ mom & dad. Robert’s energy was high & was intense, a great intense. He had me audition w/ 2 different actresses. I’ll never forget it! When we finished, he offered a handshake & said, “You have a great instrument.” I was humbled. Got outside, walked to my car praising out loud b/c I was GRATEFUL for the exp whether I booked or not. I had water in my eyes FrFr! Later that night I got the #CHECKAVAIL @11:55pm. Then found out I booked 10/11/2018 visiting my parents in IL. AMAZING! Can’t forget @tasselltalentgroup for being a great partner with me & my agent and @iamrobireed @devon_greggory @therealsinquawalls @mrtonycornelius @bet & the entire cast/crew for treating me like family. ❤️✌🏿 & Soul 🙅🏿‍♂️ (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B80VEKaB_jB/?igshid=kqy65f329xc3
