Hi Tyler, I do not know, but all I know this is a blessing from God, and I am trying every which way I could to give my son Casey Jackson a break. I would have never know of such talent. He is extremely quiet, but he surprised me when he said he wanted to be an actor. I said yeah right, but I did not judge him at all. I bought him to several auditions and he nailed it. The casting directors was stun, Casey has natural talent He comes out of this quiet young man and when he is in a character is he someone else. The young brother is excellent. I thought he would need acting classes, he does not at all, just a few acting slangs to learn and he is good to go. I don’t know Tyler we would be grateful if you just audition him and he be in an epidsode or 15 minutes of air time you need to see this young man act. Thanks for considering him for an audition. We can be reach at home after 5pm Mon-Fri 770-506-9961 or at wk 678-874-8406. We live in Atlanta, so that is convient for me being a single mom. Thank Tyler

Hi Mr. Perry!
I have an excellent idea for a television show and I need an angel to get this idea into production.
Would you be my angel? Thank you and may God grant you more blessings.
