First of all, thank you to for having me.
I was having a conversation this morning with my dear friend, , and we talked about how our younger selves would view us now. I donāt have to look back very far for a previous version of myself to be amazed by where Iām at today.
Go back 10 years, Iām 23 years old, one year into my acting hiatus after a traumatizing experience on set, and youād see a completely devastated and lost young man with no direction.
If only he knew what was ahead of him.
Sure, I hit rock bottom more than once after that, but this was when I was at my lowest point.
It was 4 years until I entered back into the industry with a newfound love and appreciation for the craft. (or some would argue I RE-FOUND it)
Perhaps that trauma I experienced was for the better? It certainly humbled me. Shifted my perspective of what was important.
Even in this article there was a mistake in the print where the first paragraph was meant as a place holder until the finalized version was solidified. But I find it fitting. A reflection of my journey this far; the ups and downs. And now I treasure this magazine even more. Feels moreā¦ ME.
Thank you to every person Iāve met along the way and helped shape who I am today, without youā¦ I wouldnāt have been able to find my way back. ā¤ļø
