I did my first commercial for Coca Cola when I was 17. I grew up as a surfer and was on the beach in Southern California when some of the producers tapped me on the shoulder. The commercial was about a summer love story. Me and a girl walking on the pier, hand in hand on the beach, and swinging in a swing set. It was a great way to break into the industry.
