Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Gregory La’Mon. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Gregory , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today When did you first know you wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally?
I always knew I wanted to sing/act from a very young age. I would always have a microphone in my hand singing. I grew up singing with family and in the church like most, so it’s always been a very strong passion. While in school it just grew more and more from being in drama, I really discovered my love for acting and my love for singing continued to grow while participating in chorus and the Black History Program. Being able to use my gifts and talent during those stages of my life and enjoy it, reassured me that this was the path that I wanted to be on professionally.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
