I went back to my hometown in Greenport, LI and sought out kids from around the area to feature throughout the video. It felt good to send a message to kids out there with little opportunity to not be afraid to follow their dream. I’m from the middle of nowhere just like them, and had a couple people inspire me when I was younger, so I hope I could do the same for them.

Mike Check - 'Stand Up'

“Make a move – go back to school, My mom went back at the age 52!” That’s gotta be inspiration for a lot of people out there!
