Shantelle Guyton Japan, 2001-02
My travel influenced me greatly. After studying abroad in Japan, I immediately started working on my next overseas adventure and I haven’t stopped. I have since lived and worked in London and traveled to an additional 20 countries before deciding on moving permanently to NYC. It was the same courage and the survival skills I learned while living abroad that has helped me make the drastic move from working in finance to pursuing my passion in entertainment. Since then I have worked with a number of celebrities including Sean “Diddy’ Combs, The Roots, Ne-Yo, etc.
