Making the music video (Lions Ambition)

August 13, 2013

Last week I had the pleasure of being involved with another Lions Ambition music video. Just case you don’t know about this energetic music group (Lions Ambition) they are a mix of hip-hop and rock. The unique sound has gained the band praise to be selected to open for National acts: (Ludacris, Shwayze), Colleges, Festivals, and awarded in multiple competitions. The band was selected to compete on: “America’s Got Talent”  and has toured around the U.S. and parts of Canada.

In this short clip you’ll see previews of the new video and shots of my make up and costume process. The title for this music video is “Believe” and will be releasing early September 2013. I will be posting this video when it is released but until them visit their website for updates. Lions Ambition

Some thoughts on why I travel

June 20, 2013
Some thoughts on why I travel

Saint Augustine is quoted by saying, ” The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” I feel there’s something about going traveling that changes you. When you travel to different places you are exposed to different ideas, concepts and ways doing things that might not be your own. After being exposed you might find this alternative ways of doing things might be better, thus changing your outlook and perspective on life. I believe a lot of cultural acceptance can be obtained by visiting other cultures and understanding why they do what they do.

The picture on top is a mural by JESSE HARRIS and was taken from my adventures in Toronto,ON.
