The moment we've all been waiting for? It's here.

2019 is in FULL swing and  I have so much going on that it's time for another post FULL of updates!  (& Self reflection)

The end of the year marked a tremendous awakening for me. For almost all of 2018, I focused on family.  We had a ton of very important events and it was time for me to take a moment to enjoy it WITH my family, instead of from a phone in another state. It was wonderful to be around my family and for the first 6 months, I spent all of my free time around them.  It was fantastic to enjoy a little time out but I found I was missing something. I wasn't doing much creatively.  I hadn't done a single shoot and I missed it.  I missed running around working on multiple projects at a time.  I missed interacting with so many people at shows and I missed the thrill of being on set and waiting for those magical words.  
In August, I was a  guest at Comic Con Palm Springs and that started a shift. Opportunities started to present themselves and then
BAM!
I felt something inside of me click, something big..something HUGE.... and I was compelled to grab on and move forward; like our good friend Sebastian. 


Projects and opportunities started popping up in front of me.  Quickly. 
I had only one choice: Take them.   
With the beginning of 2019 already filling up, I made an important holiday trip back home.
Not where I just was, but to my childhood home. The place where I grew up holds a tremendous amount of power for me. It's impossible to express the amount of love and support that I receive from my family there, so instead, I'll show you what it creates. 



A quick Pin-up shoot with Cheryl & Dennis Mong Photography


'What comes of love and hope, togetherness, and an unflinching belief of greatness, creates the strongest power that any one person can hold.'

While away, I had the opportunity to shoot with not only one of my favorite photography teams, but some of my best friends Cheryl and  Dennnis Mong.



I was able to spend an entire 10 days away, working a little, but more importantly, visiting with those I love.
I flew back December 31st.  Just in time to ring in the new year and with one day to pack for my flight to LA! What was I doing in LA? I'll post all about it (or at least what I'm allowed to) in my next post!

Thanks for being here through my adventures - what comic and horror shows will you be at this year?  Which ones should I go to?!
