PHILOSOPHY

Life is what you make it! Along the way we all
have ups and downs and choices. It is all
about what we choose, either negative or
positive/right or wrong direction. If we all
look deeper than the surface there is a
reason for everything.
We are only here for a short time, so try to
be your best, work hard, and live life to the
fullest and learn from what is thrown at you.

Don't be afraid to try different things, be
adventrous and out of every negative
situation comes a positive solution
and we can learn alot from life
experiences-good or bad, negative or positive?
REMEMBER 3-There is an artist upstairs
(God/Pray), work hard/be your best
(Care-Help Where you can), and
work out/think POSITIVE and
whatever happens (Healthy-Live-Learn)!!!!!!!

MISSION

is to make a difference and help others on a larger scale,
whether it is Positive, Health, or Film related.
Losing my father’s experiences and wisdom has
motivated me to create “Montage Memories Filming”
so others don’t experience the same. My slogan
I like to use is “ There are a lot of Great Inventions
and Stories in the Cemetery”.

My goal has been to share my positive/negative
or healthy experiences to a larger audience
and work hard to be the best I can be in whatever
aspect of my life and  help others and my business.

I enjoy helping people and seeing everyones
transformation from feeling better, getting
healthy and changing attitudes and making
a positive difference in the world!!!!!
