Best way to stay ahead
Always maintain a vision for the future. Always prepare for what may lay ahead.
“Passion is to me as 'the force' is to Luke Skywalker.” Guiding principle in life
Always keep your integrity intact no matter what the cost!!!
Yardstick of success
I have been lucky enough to taste success in the entertainment business. Keeping that “yardstick” a few inches away from myself intentionally is a motivational tool. It just makes work harder and harder and allows me to not get too comfortable.
Goal yet to be achieved
To retire young.
Best practical advice
Go after your desires with a passion. Be patient. Great things will come.
Most memorable business experience
Leaving J. Michael Bloom & Associates ten years ago and starting MKS & Associates within twenty-four hours. We literally started an agency overnight. People thought we were crazy. What a journey!!
Mentor
Of course Mitchell K. Stubbs.
What motivates you for success?
My passion drives me each and every day. Passion is such a strong force in my life. Let me use an analogy; Passion is to me as “the force” is to Luke Skywalker.
Like best about what you do
To make a positive impact in a client’s life is such a high. The great team we have at MKS makes it even easier to do the job at hand.
Like least about what you do
It’s always difficult to tell a client that they didn’t land a certain role/project. That can be
tough. Especially if things get down to the wire.
At age 10, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Going way back! I remember wanting to be a firefighter!! Boy have things changed!
Leader in business most interested in meeting
I’m not the type that is keenly interested in meeting someone because of the stature they hold. I’m sure we can all learn from everybody around us.
Three interesting facts about yourself
1. I was one of the youngest agents in Hollywood at the age of 23.

3. My girlfriend is extremely supportive, amazing and beautiful.
4. Life is good. Oops. That was 4 facts. Oh well.
