I am interested in three major things in my life which are: Music, Film, and Art. I also enjoy taking part of those three things every now and then.
Music
I love Music...I pretty much enjoy listening to all sorts of music. There is one genre that does not interest me which is hard heavy metal rock. My favorite genre lately has been COUNTRY. My goal in life is to pursue a career in the Entertainment/Multi-Media Industry as a Film Producer, Film Director, Film Editor, Screenplay Writer, Actor, Music Producer, Music Editor, Photographer, Photo Editor, etc. I plan on Creating my own Production Company in the near future.
Movies
I love film as much I love music. My favorite films are those shot outside the country. For example:Babel,Syriana,Munich,The Kingdom,etc. My favorite actors are Al Pacino,Brad Pit,Sean Penn,George Clooney,and Leonardo DeCaprio.

Television
Sooo, what's my favorite movie you asked?... haha... I really don't watch much of television shows anymore. I'm stuck on watching a movie or working on a project of some sort.
ABOUT THE SHOW
- TNT set Tuesday nights on fire this past winter with the first season of this thrilling, fast-paced drama series starring Oscar® winner Timothy Hutton (Ordinary People). This summer, the gang is back with more elaborate scams designed to exact revenge against those who use power and wealth to victimize people. Hutton stars as Nate Ford, a former insurance investigator determined to bring down the kind of corrupt bigwigs whose neglect led to the death of his son. His highly skilled team includes Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman – Coupling), a grifter who uses her acting skills to corner her marks; Eliot Spencer (Christian Kane – TNT’s Into the West), a “retrieval specialist” with bone-crunching fighting skills; Alec Hardison (Aldis Hodge – Friday Night Lights), a gadget and technology wizard who keeps the team connected and informed; and Parker (Beth Riesgraf – Alvin and the Chipmunks), a slightly off-center thief adept at repelling off buildings or squeezing into tight places. Together, the team puts their energy, quick minds and keen intellects toward securing justice for society’s underdogs.
--LEVERAGE, which is executive-produced by Dean Devlin (Independence Day, TNT’s The Librarian movies), has scored big in its first season, ranking as ad-supported cable’s #1 show in its timeslot.
Books
I don't really read many books now days... back then I loved The Count of Monte Cresto...
Heroes
I would like to thank Brain Manely at North West Film Center located in Portland for giving me a chance to be part of one of his films. I really enjoyed being a part "Back to Baghdad"... I also would like to thank Holly Olson for giving me a chance to be part of one of her runway fashion shows that took part in the state of WA.
The Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans is one of the richest cultural communities in the country and was, until Hurricane Katrina in August, 2005, a crossroads of families, music and social interaction in New Orleans. As one community leader aptly described it recently, the Lower 9th Ward had an 'atmosphere of engagement that featured time spent with one another in dialog, in celebration of the music, words and history that make the Lower 9 so special.

In December 2006, Brad Pitt convened a group of experts in New Orleans to brainstorm about building green affordable housing on a large scale to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. Having spent time with community leaders and displaced residents determined to return home, Pitt realized that an opportunity existed to build houses that were not only stronger and healthier, but that had less impact on the environment.

About me:
Emir Garcia- family background comes from Spain. I was Originally born in Houston,Texas, where I was partly raised up until I was 10yrs. old. Moved to Hammond, LA where I resided up until I moved up here to Oregon in 2005 after the Hurricane Katrina and Rita hit that year. I'm currently residing in Gresham, OR. Living in Oregon is overwhelming because the many opportunities that are out here as far as jobs and living. It is also one of the most beautiful states I have seen and lived in so far.My plan this year is to pay off my debt and start clean by getting myself a vehicle and getting my butt into school again and achieving my goals which are getting a degree in Music and Film. I don't think I have to go into what interest me... you should find all of that on my page here. I am also a small time Actor/Model here in Oregon. I've been a part of One student film, Two Independent Feature Film, One TV episode of TNT'S 'LEVERAGE', and a couple Runway Modeling Shows. As far as films goes... nothing big yet (Like big motion picture) but the day will come... I have a cat named Tyson and a dog named Riley. I share an apartment with my best friend Mandy. She is the greatest influence in my life. Well, that about wraps up my life for now. I will keep ya'll posted otherwise...
Who I'd like to meet:
