Other than your current job, what other job in the entertainment industry do you dream of doing?

I am open to change and adventure.

Many years ago I was close to a studio marketing job at MGM/Universal. The company was purchased and hiring frozen. I know I could have excelled in that area.

Gary Fuchs encouraged me to become an agent, manager, producer or casting professional. I had
growing girls at home, and made a choice, one I would undo if I could.

I was offered a Gospel contract when I was 19, but my father had just passed away and I wanted to stay close to family.

The same was true when I was offered a choice to move to LA and meet Uncle "Toy" Bennett.

A general list: Marketing, agent, manager, writer, publicist, casting, coaching, voice artist, acting, where ever my potential, talents and contributions may lead.
