To say that my intern year at the Honor Academy didn’t affect my life as it is today would be a huge understatement; the leadership and discipline skills that I have learned in one year have helped me excel in everything I have been doing in my life. Even though one year at the HA was hard, it helped me realize that with God you can go as far as you want. It has helped me strive to be the best in my talents, and to always give Him the glory even when it hurts the most.
Although I have been out of the HA for less than a year, I have used almost every key idea from classes at the HA; From taking the responsibilities of being the man of the house, to disputing ideas rationally about Apologetics, to understanding what it is to be a leader. This has helped me tremendously in the very hard industry of Entertainment, and it is because of the many strong core values taught at the HA that now I am a successful actor/musician taking off with God at my side. The phrase “pain is weakness leaving the body” is something I must remind myself daily because with God, the pain subsides and it becomes growing pains that lead to more knowledge for the future.
I continually resort back to what I have learned from the HA and remind myself what is expected of me as an Elite Warrior of God. I am in the line of fire, but God will protect me from the enemy. I continue to strive to be that man of God, ferociously and courageously fighting for His glory and seeking His every word and step for the next thing I need to accomplish. With that I have been given many opportunities to affect the lives of many celebrities and of my own family.
Since the internship I am going to college, double majoring in Cinematography and Music, with a minor in Latin American Studies. I strive to become a Film Director inspiring and reaching out to a nation through Film and Music. I have been able to audition and tour with bands and cast in many projects that will be filmed in the near future. The most important thing is that I rely on God every step of the way because there is no way I would be here without Him.
