On this episode of the VIP Ignite podcast, your host Deneen White is excited to introduce you to Mark Dickson. Mark is a very talented man who has a great story. A student of communication and psychology, he wasn’t the best pupil in grade school. Being more creative than concrete he quickly lost interest in mathematics in all variations. Nonetheless, he managed to earn a bachelor in Communication from Old Dominion University and two scholarships toward graduate education.  About halfway through college, his family endowment ended. But having watched others before him struggle with student loan debt, he decided to pay for the rest of my education out of pocket which allowed him to become financially independent.  He always wanted to perform...his dream was to graduate high school and sing in the streets of New York until he was discovered. One day he woke up and had done it all... earned all respect from the bank, from his parents, from the department of education, from his love; but he still was not satisfied. This is when he realized he had forgotten to pay attention to my gifts. He'd spent all this time making everyone happy for him but was not completely happy with himself.

On this episode of the VIP Ignite podcast, your host Deneen White is excited to introduce you to actor Christopher Hill. He was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. At the age of 5, he was introduced to the saxophone by a neighborhood friend at which time he became enamored with performing. By the time that he was in high school he was playing professionally in and around the local market with several childhood friends. Upon realizing that the nomadic lifestyle of a starving musician was not what he was willing to take on as a lifestyle, he joined the U.S. Navy with the hopes of making it a career, but he was apparently too strong-minded to comply with centuries-old traditions.  During all of his travels and life experiences, Christopher has always felt like a “certain something” was missing...performing! That’s when he decided to investigate the acting business and performing aspect of it. He started doing background work and very early on was told that he should stay in the business and pursue principal work. After 2 years of doing over 45 different shows of background, stand-in, and photo double work he decided that it was time to make that move. After several failed agency relationships he decided to take things in his own hands and started booking starring and co-starring roles in TV and commercials. Christopher's goal is to be in the 5% of working actors that comprise the 160,000 members of the SAG/AFTRA union. He is relentless in the pursuit of his goals. With the help of VIP Ignite, he is absolutely positive that this will happen.

On this episode of the VIP Ignite podcast, your host Deneen White is excited to introduce you to Deundre Davis, also known as Dre.  Dre has always wanted to help people...his dream was to be a firefighter. But, when he started acting at age 15, he instantly knew it was his purpose and his opportunity to not only help people in his community but people all over the world. His ultimate goal in the entertainment industry is not to win an Oscar, Emmy or Golden Globe...his goal is to give back to his community and leave an impact on those who look up to him.  If you are interested in learning how to be a model, actor or musician, please visit our website at https://ammsociety.com/webinar-registration for free resources to help get you started!
