Tell about yourself and your background! *
I’m 29 years old I'm from Atlanta Georgia I'm a stunt performer been in stunts for 6 years now and my background is power tumbling.
What inspired you to become a stunt performer?
My martial arts teacher he’s also does stunts and acting. He inspired me to get into stunts when he asked me to do a fight scene in his YouTube series. After that I fell in love with stunts.
What is your greatest skill as a stunt performer, is there a stunt behind it?
Reactions and wrecking
What is the best part about being a stunt performer?
Watching yourself perform seeing the outcome of your hard work that you’ve trained for weeks and weeks on
Tell your all-time favorite stunt story!
I was hired to do stunts on a Chris Daughtry music video it was like a Star Wars themed video and I was chosen to fight Chris in one scene they liked how I moved in the first scene so they wanted me to fight him in another scene he was very nice and cool we was talking after the scene and he told me how talented I was and to keep going and that meant a lot to me because even though I’m hard on myself other people appreciate my hard work and Dedication to stunts.
What advice would you give other stunt performers?
Train as much as you can don’t listen to no one who is not supporting you or pushing you to be the best as you can be. Because no one can stop you but you.
Anything else you'd like to tell the community about?
I want to see everyone win support one another because you can’t get all the job you want so look out for other stunt performers and humble yourself because everyone can get replaced in a heartbeat. Be kind to people because people will remember if you was a nice person and easy to work with or if you was a not so nice person who is difficult to work with. I rather for people to remember me as the nicest person they ever worked with because that’s who I am I treat people the way I want to be treated.
