I share my path to resilience, of knowing acknowledging what is part of me but doesn't define me and how creating success instead of becoming a statistic was possible. I am a professional actor, artist, model, writer, and now published author. I have worked in the entertainment industry for over 25 years. My work has included international blockbuster films, TV shows, and over 2000 advertising campaigns and commercials for global brands. This is a result of choosing to embrace the unknown and choose to live. At 15 during a suicide attempt, two words spoke loudly in my mind, "Stop. Leave." I chose to listen and ran away for the 3rd time since the age of 13. Determined to break the chain I felt was trying to hold me captive as it did so many of my family members. A little over a year later, with the help of a compassionate and giving family who took me in as a runaway, I became emancipated at the age of 16.
