Urbanworld Film Festival

This acting journey of mine has been on-going for 10 years now.  I’ve never given up the dream of becoming a successful actor.  I never did nor did I ever doubt myself, not once.  Whether I’ll make it in this challenging profession remains to be seen but I tend to believe I’ll do well because I feel it.  As we head to the New York premiere of  “Salud” playing later today at the 34th St. AMC Loews, I’m not even going to lie, it feels exciting.  Thanks in great part to the Urbanworld Film Festival for the opportunity.  Finally the majority of my friends will sort of witness the type of work I’ve been putting into my craft these last 10 years.  There will also be other people in attendance.  Many I’ve never met but hopefully they will give me constructive criticism.  These are the voices that I’m seeking today because it’s a craft that I enjoy working in.  I want to hear what the audience has to say.   On top of that I’m working on my second feature.  To see your work in the big screen like that I can only imagine must be like when I watched the HD Mayweather/Marquez fight just recently at the movie theatre,.. BREATHLESS!!

I made “Salud” with no names and little money but to make up for it I found talented actors and crew members that were loyal and believed in the film.  “Salud” is a prime example of  “A Labor of Love”.  I hope you enjoy it!!
