How did you get started with acting?

Funny story about that I really started to enjoy the craft of acting once I seen one of my really good friends who is also an actor his name is “Terrance Hardy”, seen him on a show back in the day called “Ghost Whispers” and when I seen him on the show I was like Yoo that looks way to fun and I wanna experience that.

This has changed my life so much “Safety” has been the biggest dream, being able to be part of such an inspiring story told through so much love and it being a Black film and directed by a Black director is such an honor.
