I’ve spent over 30 years in the entertainment industry — starting in Los Angeles as a kid model, working in Japan, earning my SAG card in 1987, and eventually moving behind the camera.
What most people see is the finished image.
What they don’t see is the preparation. The positioning. The emotional maturity. The ability to walk into a room and hold your ground.
That’s why I created Hollywood Modeling School.
Not to glamorize the industry — but to demystify it.
We talk about real portfolios. Real posing. Real industry etiquette. And most importantly, how to protect your identity while building your image.
Entertainment isn’t just about being photogenic. It’s about being prepared.
If you’ve ever wondered what it actually takes — I’m always open to that conversation.
