So I have to learn how to fight like a ruthless ninja for my next project, but you gotta start somewhere. Off to training now. Here’s a video from my first session two weeks ago…
I was offered a reporter role on Season 2 of HIT THE FLOOR on VH1, and we shot the episode today! Some mid-week fun on set. 🙂 I’ll keep you posted on when it airs.
What do LeVar Burton and Deepak Chopra have in common? They are both awesome and they have both changed my life. Find out how and celebrate my TV booking with me today!
If you’re interested in learning more about Deepak’s 21 Day Meditation Challenge on Creating Abundance, you can preview it here.
Love, love, love!

Yoni’s Fav Headshot
I met Yoni Ovadia after the ABC Showcase and we discussed working together. After a couple of weeks and a couple of other meetings, I’m happy to announce that Ovadia Talent is the newest member of Team Ajarae! Yoni started his own company after working for many industry powerhouses, and he has a number of wonderful connections in the industry. He’s a hard worker like I am, he understands my goals, and I’m beyond excited to have a manger who is so focused on helping me bring my acting career to the next level. I’m even bringing his favorite headshot back into the rotation… haven’t used this one consistently since The Gift Horse. Stay tuned for lots to come out of this new partnership!

AKA “the black girls in the showcase”
…and I’m exhausted. I wanted to try to get to bed early tonight, but I had to make a last minute trip to the mall at Hollywood and Highland to get some wardrobe options for tomorrow (we’ve revised my character (yet again!) to be a bit more sexy and demure than funny and quirky), and then a quick trip to Target for some thank you cards, then a phone call from an old friend, and now I’ve finally washed my face and brushed my teeth for bed and it’s 1 AM. How does that happen? This whole showcase process has been completely nuts, but soooo much fun! The best part by far? The friends I’ve made. Cheesy, but so true. For the last week, me and my fellow 11 actors have been cooped up for 13 hours per day at the El Portal Theater. Eating 3 meals per day together, laughing endlessly, overcoming frustrations over our scenes, tweaking and re-tweaking our performances… I can’t believe it’s all going to be over tomorrow by 8:30.
