Success Story: Gary Romans

Peter & Anne –

As I was contemplating my schedule for the next few weeks it occurred to me that this was just what I wished for back in the summer of 2000 filling out my Compass in my Careermakers class. I am now happily retired and enjoying a successful hobby-career as an artist:

  • I start tomorrow morning at KMHD 89.1 FM (or listen online at www.KMHD.fm) as a radio host with a 4-hour jazz music show every Thursday, 6-10 AM
  • I’m rehearsing as a supernumerary (no singing) to open at the Keller Auditorium in the Portland Opera’s February production of Handel’s “Rodelinda”
  • I am now a Certified Oregon Thespian Judge and this Saturday I’ll be judging the Regional Competition at Parkrose HS
  • I’ve been cast in my first movie speaking role that will be filming in mid-February
  • I will be Directing the September production of the comedy “It’s Been Wonderful” at the Old Slocum theater in downtown Vancouver, WA
  • I’m on the Board of Directors and handling Marketing/PR for Masque Alfresco, performing commedia dell'arte comedies outdoors in Portland area parks in late summer
  • And I now have an agent and have even started earning mad money as a model and actor for various commercials and films
Moral: As we were told in the class – what we learn will also apply in retirement as well as when seeking gainful employment.

Thank you, Careermakers!
