California Arts Council

I saw in my description back when I was really ambitious I quit my corporate job and went all into dance.

Reflecting back on that decision...

What I didn't anticipate is how poor one could actually get being a dancer, and how not being able to afford food to eat really affects your performance in a bad way. So after losing enough skill from basically wasting away and starving, and after being poor for a long while I got a job over at the California Arts Council where I still am today. A special thanks out to the pastor of my church for giving me the leftovers after every Sunday's college age kid discussion deal which helped me not die. I guess I'll thank God as well for looking out for a poor starving dancer.

I'm still a dancer by night and weekends... being able to afford food helps though, I think I'm increasing more in less time just from being able to work harder.
