I’m excited about this new endeavor I’m trying at the age of 60. I’ve always had an interest in being in commercials or working as an extra or in a background role. I turned 60 a few months ago & it hit me to maybe try & put myself out there & see what happens. I’m not getting any younger. We’re only given a day at a time on this beautiful creation GOD made for us! You know, crazy things happen all the time for other people-so why not me? I don’t have any experience, but they say if you don’t try you’ll never know. That’s what I’m doing. I was born in Florida & have lived here most of my life. I am married & my Mom lives with my husband & I. We have one adult daughter. I told myself to try it out for awhile & see what happens. I’m sure GOD will help me with this if it’s meant to be a reality for me. All I can do is give it my best shot. I can possibly travel to other areas, if the role is a good fit for me. Just putting that out there. My inspirations are Catherine O’Hara, Diane Keaton & Dolly Parton. GOD bless them! It’s so sad they’re not here with us anymore. My favorite is Catherine. She was definitely making a comeback. There’s others I look up to but don’t think you want me to list all of them. Thank you for your consideration of me. Much appreciated!
