As a semi disabled mother of two, I'd like to try other venues. I want to show my children that it's worth it to try your hand at everything at least once. Currently I run my own wedding business as an officiate and singer, and I used to do theater for most of my youth and as a young adult before family became my life. It would be an unique and fun experience.
I am a GREAT fan of both Michael Keaton and McDonald's! I have no acting training, but would love to be in the background. I'm born and raised in the Deep South and understand coming from meager beginnings and working hard to improve my life and the lives of those around me. I'm 65 years young and Caucasain. Would LOVE to be an extra!
