After a long and emotionally wrenching struggle with stage 4 lung cancer and the setting of many of her health conditions played a significant part of my success in health care.

Known by most as the City of Angels, this is where I was force to live and survive from hitting rock bottom, this is where I live life to the fullest without any regrets. It's where I learned the most, I can say now. I have experience and something to offer. December 27th 2012 is when I started my acting career with the help of my best friend actor "Stephane Solar from the Movie Midnight Warrior and Speak of the Devil. Stephane, transformed me from a health care professional to one of Hollywood's newest upcoming actors and I never looked back. For those of you who know me.. you know that my passion is to always give back and to build platforms for others to shine. My work has always and will always provide opportunity for the underprivileged, unsung talent in my community and beyond, making dreams come true.

"Surviving Tough Times" is a gripping story about (Me) a Memphis Healthcare Professional going through the hardships of life through abuse, addiction, heartache, death, & homelessness with a quest for redemption. Surviving Tough Times...a Film by Robert L Jamison...Directed by Bernard L. Eatmon I wrote the movie Surviving Tough Times because life has knocked me down a few times. It has shown me things I never wanted to see, I have experienced sadness and failures. But I also wanted to shed light on the great city Memphis TN simply because I am proud of where I "come from" and send a positive message to raise awareness for a variety of causes namely; Healthcare, Domestic Violence and Homelessness causes. In short the film is about me and my struggles. It shed light on how I learned to survive and craft a new way to live under The most unusual set of circumstances.
