As with most individuals who move to LA, my story begins at childhood with big dreams and a vision crazy enough to make me believe I could actually manifest them.
I’ve wanted to be in LA ever since I can remember. I didn’t know why or how it would happen. I just always knew I’d end up here – in the city of angels.
I remember sitting on the couch in our apartment watching TV. I decided then I’d work in “Hollywood.” I use quotation marks intentionally as the place and the meaning are largely subjective and certainly not what one really gets when they come to LA.
When you move here, you feel like you’re on top of the world, eating expensive meals in skyscrapers, working red carpet events with the most influential people on this planet, and sitting in glass rooms having discussions with well-respected executives about the newest innovations of the world.
When you move to LA, you’ll also reach your lowest points; finding yourself in unsafe locations, among ill-intentioned acquaintances, and the most alone you’ve felt all your life when you just need that damn ride home from LAX.
So why move here?
Because you’ll never get that adrenaline rush and thrill anywhere else.
Welcome to the good life.
