Robert sent a message to Robert Iger – Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company Email Address that said:
Mr. Iger,
pray that this correspondence reaches you at just the right time. I have read your story, witnessed your success and admire the man that you are. You have been able to use your education and intuition to make power moves and do outstanding things with Disney. The Universe has led me to you so here is my story.
My name is Robert L. Lovick aka D.E.V. “The Dynamic Wonder”. I’m a 44 year old father of 5 ages 11-24 (2 daughters attending college presently). I work for an insurance company as the Workers Compensation Intake Supervisor and I am miserable. My passion and burning desire is entertainment. I have hosted events as an emcee for over 16 years, acted in some off Broadway plays, interviewed artists/celebrities on various shows but haven’t been able to get that BIG break. . I’m unhappy knowing that I have made less than $40,000 a year all my life and my natural talent has not allowed me to live the life that I feel I deserve thus far.
In needing to increase my net worth and my education for me and my family I applied to CRAS (Conservatory for Recording Arts Sciences) located in Gilbert/Tempe AZ. Today as a father, future entrepreneur, and visionary, I see the need for an education/career. A job that is not in the entertainment industry just won’t allow me to have what I really want. The idea of going on with life doing something that I don't truly have a desire for or am just doing to get a paycheck is no way to live. Audio engineering is the next step I need to take towards my goals.
My transcripts are awful, but I took a chance, applied to CRAS I have been accepted after going through the interview process. On September 30, 2016 I start my first class. Unfortunately, I have been unable to receive any scholarships or grants to cover the remaining tuition balance of $7,653 plus my housing for the next 12 months which is $8,160. The money that I have been able to save covers only a portion of my moving expenses to Arizona. I need assistance. (see www.gofundme/thedynamicwonder)
You may be wondering why a guy from NYC would move across the country to attend school or why not just get a job and work like everyone else. My reason is that I have been employed by someone else all my life and now is the time to really put some work into myself. Everyone deserves the chance to determine their own future. I have found what I need to focus on. At this point I would move anywhere that there was opportunity for me to grow and live life. The benefits from my education will not only allow me to be an entrepreneur, but it will also give me the opportunity to be closer to both my sons. One is a recording artist and the other is highly interested in video game design. A father should not only be financial support he should be able to leave his children with great memories and a solid foundation for success, so that they can continue that knowledge from generation to generation. I have the chance to teach them that it is never too late to pursue your true desires and passions. That is what you should do with your life.
I would like to take this moment to thank you for reading my story whether you help me or not. My vision when I finish at CRAS is to create my own businesses, job opportunities, grants, and scholarships for people who are in the same point in life where I am now. An internship with your company would be awesome as well. Before I can do any of these things I just need a little help.
Thanks again.
Robert
