Model/Actor Interview (continued...)

Would you recommend attending an IMTA Convention to other aspiring young actors and models? If so, Why?

• Yes, definitely! Where else can you have the opportunity to perform for over 400 different agents in one week? There isn't a place in the world you could go have such an amazing opportunity to showcase yourself. I highly recommend IMTA.

Have you met any famous people since you have been a model/actor? Who was the most interesting celebrity you’ve met so far? Who has inspired you the most?

• I've only met two so far; Johnny Depp and Anthony Hopkins. I met Johnny Depp on set for Public Enemies as a stand-in. Anthony Hopkins was at the table next to me at a restaurant, so I had to be cheesy and say hi and shake his hand. Johnny Depp has inspired me the most. His ability to create such amazing characters is why I find him so amazing. I'm really hoping to have a career like him and get offered the same types of roles in films. That would be my ultimate goal.

Any final words of wisdom to add?

• Just work hard at fine-tuning your skills everyday. Remember that work you enjoy isn't really work at all, so it's important to always keep your head up when things get difficult. This is supposed to be fun, and it is! That's why we do it!
