A poor little rich girl in a 3rd world country. Pamela grew up with secrets and lies. Her father takes the family and immigrates to America. She was a typical obedient Filipina, destined to be a licensed registered nurse. But then a twist of fate occurs and her life opens up in to the exciting world of entertainment as a production dancer/magician’s assistant. Although she was told, ’You’re too old, too Asian, and too short’, she is catapulted into a long and fulfilling career as a dancer. Seemingly suddenly, Pamela, is performing with well renowned magicians traveling the world and making numerous appearances at the Magic Castle. She then continues on as a cruise ship dancer/entertainer touring the waters from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean; through the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.
Join Pamela, as she takes you through her journey of transformation despite the comical limitations she was born in to.
