Our LANER OF THE WEEK is Jesus Garcia!

Matthew Borchers

Jesus, our Laner of the Week, is from Nashville, TN! In addition to some awesome work on the Lane, he loves the craft of acting and is trying to get a short film off the ground! One day he hopes to make – and be in! – movies people love. Let’s find out more about Jesus, shall we?

What do you like about Mustard Lane or just working events in general?

I think it’s a nice side gig. I like interacting with people and Mustard Lane gives me the opportunity to meet so many people!

When you’re not on the Lane…what are you doing?!

I’m currently a manager at a coffee shop named Lasaters in Goodlettsville.

What is one of your goals for 2024?

To make this short film I’ve been working on forever.

Name a place you’d love to travel to. And why?!

I unfortunately don’t travel much due to the affliction of having an empty wallet.

What’s your favorite way to spend a day off from the Lane?

Being with the people I care about.

Favorite media you’ve consumed recently?!

I just finished Black Sails (TV) and now I want to be a pirate.

What’s your hidden talent?!

I’m extremely focused and never leave anything unfin 😉

If you could have your dream job tomorrow, what would it be?

Definitely an Actor.

What’s an essential part of your daily, Laner-of-the-Week routine?

Going for a run.

What life lesson did you learn the hard way?

Sometimes you can’t save everyone.

Salty or Sweet?

Why not both?

What’s a brand or event that you would love to represent on the Lane, should the chance ever arise?

Jackie Chan’s Clothing line. This is obviously in hopes it would allow me to meet him.

What inspires you most?

The people I love.
