A Step Forward
Abstract
“A Step Forward” is a documentary about the personal journey about me, as I seek to become an officer of the Coast Guard to not only help pay for college, but to seek opportunities unique to that in the military in order to grow as an individual, begin an ambitious career, and to travel the world. I had encountered many challenges along the way, including a lack of confidence, being overweight, and lacking any titles or experience to help solidify my image as a leader. Despite the challenges, I have managed to not only overcome these obstacles, but I have thus far managed to advance in the program in which I applied for and currently waiting for the results (which will be in by around March 4th) to see if I will be able to begin my journey as a Coast Guardsmen. Regardless of the outcome (which will be presented in the documentary), I have learned a lot through this experience, and I have changed as a person just by preparing for this amazing opportunity. This documentary is directed by myself, Rolando Bolanos.
