I grew up on set, my mom performed car, combat, and other typical action movie stunts (New Jack City, Jason's Lyric) and my father an award-winning producer (Hustle and Flow, Girl's Trip) would have on set whenever I was out of school. I learned a lot from Watching them work, and my own experiences working all over America. I also helped my daughter with her own career in entertainment. She started modeling at 11 months old and worked regularly... until the pandemic. She loves filmmaking the most and her plans are to become a director full time when she's an adult. She loves making movies already.
Looking for a special gift to celebrate a birth, wedding, over even a graduation. Get your requests in 6-8 weeks and you can have a presidential gift that will be a family heirloom. I had this done for my daughter when she was born. A real treat for her to bring in for show-n-tell. Warning, it wont have a stimulus check or gift card, in the envelope so although it's a priceless gift that will surely be unique, you might have to pair with another gift.
