Dreams can only come to life if you're a dreamer, and being a dreamer is believing in anything you do. My goal is to inspire to create a world for millions only to think it their own. I have loved movies, and television shows, my entire life. Through actions, fantasy, drama, comedy, and so much more, it has been my only way to escape and cancel out all the noise of life and to feel as if it's only me and the movie or show there. It is why I want to be a Film Producer, to be apart of something that makes someone feel as if when nobody is listening; there is always someone who understands.
The power that it within the film industry only sacred should hold because it is a power that can make or break the world. It is my everything to move hundreds of people with the shows or movies I am apart of, to open up a world for them just like I had. The feeling of knowing what you just created to share with millions of others will change and impact someone more than you could ever imagine- is extraordinary. I was a girl that never felt connected to anything or anyone, a feeling that kind of still stands today. But the only thing I ever felt apart of or made me feel as if I had a purpose; is when I was watching a new show or movies, and I can relate to the character or the plot, is when I felt apart of something.
I never felt like I will accomplish anything or anything will make me feel so happy, but having the ability to create gives me life. I have a web-series called Black Girl Chronicles, and it just started with me, a couple of friends, and my sister sitting in a room. My sister asked do you guys want to be in the short film for a class for me? That's when this film project for school; become so much more, turning into a web-series that has touched a lot of young black girls in my community. I saw the force that shows and movies have on people, making people feel connected to something; I thought I was the only one.
Creating shows or movies is my calling it is the prince that saved me from my isolated castle. I have never been more passionate about anything in my life lights a fire in me and will continue because my power is making people feel connected to something. Just because I was that little girl who felt alone does not mean anyone else has to be.
