I was fortunate enough to be introduced to John O'Leary many years ago by Gary Baker when he invited me to attend John's first company event. Both men are incredible human beings that I'm lucky to have gotten to know over the years.

When St. Louis Filmworks was asked to be the fiscal sponsor for the film, I was thrilled we could support John and the teams vision for the film. I enjoyed being on set with director, Sean McNamara (Soul Surfer) and the St. Louis crew. I can’t wait to see the finished film!! Let's sell out the St. Louis Theaters
