Hi! I'm Audri! Short for "Audrinay" which is my stage name and middle name. I am 23 years old and is from Albany, Ga but I live in Valdosta, Ga. However , I work in Atlanta frequently. I have been trained in dance, theatre, music and art from my performing high school in Albany , Ga. I've been trying desperately to break into the industry but have been reluctant to do so. Recently however, I had a near death experience where I was hit by a semi truck . Thankfully, I came out of the situation alive and with no scars or bruises. Also , due to the lack of opportunity where I reside I've seen to keep finding myself in trouble or around the wrong situations. I don't feel safe and don't feel as though I belong. On the contrary, the arts is all I know and is all I have. I have endured many hardships and inevitably I can't avoid the hardships to come. Now , I see that life is seriously short and you never know when your time is up. Before the Lord calls me home I have to complete the mission that he has set for me. I am very charismatic, perfectionist and Go getter. I've had several jobs from being a janitor, forklift operator, machine operator, packer, stripper, cashier, customer service representative, stock associate . I've had almost 27 jobs since the age of 17 and quite frankly the normal 9 to 5 thing isn't working out for me. I feel peculiar and eccentric around "normal" people. So I'm done playing it safe and I'm going to after my dreams. The word says "Where there is no vision, the people perish," Proverbs 29:18. Therefore, it's time to walk into my calling and chase after my dreams . After all, we all do not know when it's our time and before I leave this world I want to know that I did everything in my power to live out my dreams because life is but a dream
