Mike Guzman, a native of Boston, relocated to Florida at a young age, where his fascination with film began to take shape. As a child, he effortlessly garnered attention in school, foreshadowing his future passion for the industry. In his early twenties, he embarked on a journey to pursue his dream, working on film sets and immersing himself in the world of cinema.
Despite his love for the craft, his ex-girlfriend's disapproval and the notion that the film industry was a mere fantasy, Mike remained resolute. He took a bold step, flying to England to rekindle his relationship with her. However, his heart was left shattered in London, and he returned to the United States with a newfound determination to succeed in the business world.
Mike pursued a career as a broker in both commodities and stocks, but his experience was marred by the confines of a windowless room and the monotony of "smile and dial." He lost customers' money, and eventually, his own, leading him to reevaluate his priorities. He transitioned to a blue-collar job, still trading stocks on the side.
When his job of several years came to an end, Mike found himself online, scouring for new opportunities. His search led him to a film called The Librarians, and to his surprise, he spotted himself in the trailer on IMDB. The revelation sparked a renewed passion for his craft, and he began to rekindle his pursuit of a career in film.
This time around, at an older age, Mike worked alongside Hollywood actors, adult film stars, rappers, and even a cartoonist, as he poured his experiences into a semi-autobiographical comic.
