Everything! I’m a worrywart and when I think of any of the millions of things happening around me…half the time I want to disappear into a forest and become a woman of the woods. I try to stay grounded, though! I can take it day by day, hope and dream for the best, and make… Read More @sojuafrica: What is your biggest concern with the future?

My life is made up of a lot of moments where I had to choose which path to take and trust my gut, so I don’t have one defining moment in my life. A recent one was a promise to myself to always move with integrity and intention. Any job that I take, person that… Read More @sojuafrica: What’s a defining moment in your life?

I decided to work in this industry because I am exhilarated by storytelling. The idea of creating and showcasing a world where I can teach a stranger, or inspire them or make them laugh…that is really exciting to me.  I love the technical aspect-there are so many ways to tell a story, and the journey… Read More @sojuafrica: Why did you decide to get into this industry?

Pamela: To keep pushing forward. I’ll continue to audition for film and television projects, while I simultaneously record new episodes of our acting podcast No One’s Okay, which has become a fun passion project that opened my eyes to the world of podcasting. Also, there may or may not be more shows in the works.… Read More @noonesokay @PamelaPortnoy @AlexaMarieAnderson1: What are you working on next? In addition, if people want to find out more about you, where can they find you on social media?

Pamela: Ticket stubs from movies and plays I see. Alexa: Vintage Musical Theatre records… I love music.

Pamela: Study hard. Do the work. Keep going. Alexa: It would be one of my favorite quotes by Winston Churchill, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”

Pamela: I’m big on the little wins. In my eyes, the most successful moments I’ve had were when I was pinned for roles on network television shows. Even though I didn’t end up booking them, getting those pins took me years of auditioning. Before that, even getting into rooms for those kinds of auditions took… Read More @noonesokay @PamelaPortnoy @AlexaMarieAnderson1: What is a successful moment in your career so far?

Pamela: That one day I could look back and think that I could have done more. I try to use that as fuel to work as hard as I can right now. Alexa: Finding stability.

Pamela: It’s hard for me to think of one. I will say that when a large “failure” hits, and a part of you wants to quit but you decide to keep going anyway, that can be a defining moment. Alexa: When I received advice from a respected mentor of mine to purse a career in… Read More @noonesokay @PamelaPortnoy @AlexaMarieAnderson1: What’s a defining moment in your life?

Pamela: Acting’s been my great love since I was a little kid. When I was seven I asked my parents if I could get an agent so I could be on commercials and TV, and they said that as long as I kept my grades up I could, so I did. Alexa: It has been… Read More @noonesokay @PamelaPortnoy @AlexaMarieAnderson1: Why did you decide to get into this industry?
