I'm a Theatre BA major and am in love with acting and writing. At a graduate level I'd like to get my feet wet in film, where I'd love to be a director or cinematographer. The reason why I've chosen this path is because so far in life, the best friends and memories I've ever had were found in the arts; not because people told me it's where I 'ought to go'. Praise God, live life, love your friends, and always be truthful--it's the only advice I can give so far. I've got a long road ahead of me, but on an adventure is where I will always belong.
