So I heard this crazy idea that blogging is the new thing to do. I thought I'd give it a try. See if people want to hear the things I have to say.

I am from a small town in Michigan, I went to college in Chicago, and now I have just ventured out to Los Angeles. LA is amazing. I'm finishing school out here at Raleigh Studios which has been the perfect introduction to the city of LA. I've met some of the coolest people in the biz!

Last week we had Zak Penn come speak to us. If anyone doesn't know who Zak Penn is... he wrote the Incredible Hulk movies, Xmen, and Best Action Hero. He is continues to work in the comic book realm. And today we met Josh Friedman who wrote War of the Worlds and is now working on the TV show Terminator: The Sara Conner Chronicles.

LA is really how everyone describes it to be. Everyone is pretty much out for themselves - you can't really trust anyone. Everyone here is trying to "make it." Hell, that's why I'm out here. I'm going into Entertainment Television. There are so many things I could see myself doing. I'm just trying to meet as many people as possible and hope someone will be a connection somewhere down the line. If I've learned anything its that your reputation is everything in this business and if you make a good impression the first time then that can lead to many things. I worked The Ellen DeGeneres Show while she was in Chicago and then got recommended at MTV where I worked for them during Lollapalooza and got to work the Video Music Awards Red Carpet, while in LA for that I got recommended at Deal or No Deal to work a casting call. You never know what can happen!

So yeah that's me and I guess I'm just going to blog about the many random things that happen to me. My life is so random and quite the adventure. Hope you all enjoy!
