I know, it has been a bit of a while since my last entry, but it is because I usually only post something when there is some sort of accomplishment. However, I have been going through a period of evolution these past few weeks and have really been learning as much as I can about the business.
This saturday will be my last meeting for the On-camera acting course at Weist Barron and I just have to say how grateful I am for being given the chance to take this class free of charge. Winning the 2nd place prize of a free on-camera class after auditioning for the Weist Barron school was one of the greatest events to have happened to me in 2010. I thank director Valerie Adami for her kind words, her guidance/advice and her belief in me.
Taking this class has made me excited about taking other classes, really educating myself on movies and plays, and networking.
My goal for this summer is to sign up for intensives/seminars/classes at Actor's Connection with CDs casting in NY for television an Film. I strongly believe good things will come from that after I take my new and first professionally done headshots with imageworksNYC. I will also take dance classes at BDC to get back into the dancing groove. Auditions will be a must and I hope to submit to some print agencies to start going on go-sees.
All in all, I am very excited because at least, at this moment, I am SAG-eligible and can join whenever I am ready.
Before I go just want to give a shout out to my supervisors at Oxygen. I have had such a wonderful time over my spring 2011 semester. I have met some really cool individuals within this company and made some great friends. I wish everyone well and look forward to being in touch in the future.

PS: I also recently recorded the original cast recording for "Most Likely To: The Senior Superlative Musical" - loved being in the studio! I will update you all on that soon
