She said that without the necessary funds, her dream seemed out of reach until some Miracle Films members noticed her and allowed her to register despite her financial difficulties.

The actress said she recognised the chance to be on set and volunteered for the role. She added that although new to the industry and inexperienced, she used the opportunity to learn and grow and was able to glean a lot from Samuel Nyamekye, the CEO of Miracle Films.

McBrown said that over time, her dedication and hard work have helped her become who she is today. The actress has since directed eight movies and produced over five films, establishing herself as a significant figure in Ghanaian cinema.
