Currently, Graham is studying with award-winning, Emmy-nominated screenwriter, author, and producer Sterling Anderson of Nitusa Productions also in Los Angeles, California. These coaches encouraged Graham and instilled in him every day to work towards building a solid body of work and become consistent at delivering undeniable performances no matter who was in the audience.
Graham's acting priority is to work towards delivering consistent and undeniable performances; and to accomplish those goals, he continues to train in various classes in scene study, comedy and improv. Presently, Graham is auditioning for film and television roles as well as doing commercial work. The ultimate goal for him is to be a consistently working actor. Graham's desires are to gain recognition for his work, but he will be content to just have consistent, significant and works that are financial giving. "I'll be happy with that at this point in my career;" says, Graham.
