  In 1991 Morgan moved to Cocoa Beach, Florida there he started construction on a new, innovative skateboard park built over a lake on telephone poles. It too, was a spine ramp.
  Cocoa Brach is where Morgan got his first real taste of Stunt Modeling, a bug he has not yet shaken. At this point Morgan began taking modeling and acting classes. At the end of 1992 he left Florida for Las Angeles, California to pursue acting and stunt work.

   After one of many injuries in 2003, Morgan decided to take a short break and move back to his Florida home, allowing time to mend. In no time, his circle of friends began to call him “HOLLYWOOD” after the place he worked and called home for years. The name caught on fast.
   He started networking with old friends from Hollywood by phone and e-mail. Morgan started working on a project called the “HOLLYWOOD Project” with the group called “The HOLLYWOOD Network”; their vision to start producing their own films. Morgan then opened his production company, Monroe Productions International.
   Morgan “HOLLYWOOD” Monroe has always felt like the community should be more involved in skateboarding and he works with city skate parks and recreation centers, promoting skateboarding in a positive light.
