First movie premiere in the books 🤞🏽
Truly blessed to be apart of something like this, this movie meant so much to me given the lengths @adioash went through to rewrite the script adding in my Achilles injury that happened IRL. Belly using a Cane & boot weren’t just props it was real life!!! I understood this character so well due to my personal circumstances financially and his drive of wanting to support his family. That emotion you saw on screen was real, it’s easy to jump into someone’s mind when you’re get it.
Nothing prepares you for the feeling of watching yourself on the big screen after those long days and nights of filming, it’s such a surreal feeling. A.I can’t recreate this & streaming can’t replace this. The movie theatre is where I grew up jumping from one screening to another with my mother, I love the Arts and I love that I get to do what I LOVE.
CHASE YOUR DREAMS!!!! THE NEXT SHIFT COMING TO STREAMING PLATFORMS 2026!
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR COMING & SUPPORTING! SOLD OUT, THIS IS THE FIRST OF MANY, GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME & ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD 🙏🏽

Work hard, beat the odds & remain humble.
The path to your dreams is never linear, ai’m forever grateful to be apart of this film & do something I love. Acting is never work for me, they don’t pay me to Act they pay me to wait. Acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances, I became the person I wanted to before I got there and it’s safe to say Meisner would be happy. God’s timing is the right timing, feeling blessed & highly favored given the circumstances I overcame last year🙏🏽

Man oh man did this Marathon cook me… Dealing with an ankle injury (PTT) stopped my training 3 weeks out of the race then cramping up on mile 16 in both Quads & hamstrings i just wanted to quit truthfully. I almost didn’t race but a couple things kept me going while running. I saw a man struggle just as bad as me with a hat that said “Go one more” and running around the city I filmed 2 movies in the previous year. Just like my career nothing has came easy and it’s a long marathon not a race, we all have the same destination but reach it at different times. Limping and walking for miles and miles on end made me question why am I doing this but I couldn’t give up because I know all the training that went into this. Vice versa when my Dreams have gotten heard I never gave up, nothing worth having comes easy. I’m happy I accomplished this, I didn’t reach my PR goal but we did it… I still question why I do this to myself because my body hurts like a MF but MEDAL ME UP! 3x Marathoner 🤞🏽
