Looking to get DM/GM experience

Hello good folks of Roll20, I'm still a fairly new player when it comes to Tabletop RPGs but I would like to see how it is on the other side of the table. I've played a few hours as a character in a campaign but being new as you can imagine it's a bit hard to find a group who would be willing to let me fumble my way through a campaign as I get my bearings and learn the ins and outs of being a DM/GM. So here's some information about me, I love to actually act (do voices and rp in character) while playing the game, and on occasion get out of character but only briefly as to not derail the game. I have a fairly flexible schedule for hours to play though I would prefer weekdays, I generally work evenings (around 4-10pm). My timezone is EST (GMT -5) I'm 21 so I would like for it to be a mature group (18+). I would be using a pre-made campaign as I have no experience making one, but have no issues if characters are pre-gen or custom so long as the group agrees. I would be more than happy to use Voice and/or Video whilst we play. For now I think that's about it, if you have any questions about myself, availability, or anything else please feel free to post a reply here or send me a message and I'll be happy to respond.
What sort of game would you be looking to do?

Hey Tyler, if you want to run Pathfinder, i'm up to join you. I'm 22,also more interested in a slightly more mature game. Also love teaching new players or helping GMs learn. Timezone is CT, so you're an hour ahead of me. I'm free most days after 1700 CST, except Thursdays and Mondays. Did you have  specific campaign or module in mind?

Unfortunately I don't know much about the campaigns and modules available but I have already run through the Beginner's Box as a character so I am hoping to do something a bit more elaborate that won't likely be knocked out in a single sitting. Something that I could run over the course of around 4-8 weeks I feel would be ideal for my first time. 
Sounds good to me! Theres a couple of modules that are multi-part and would probably run on the short end of 4-8 weeks, depending on game speed. Theres also the adventure paths, which are very very long, so i'm not sure if you want to commit to one of those or not. Either way, if you've got a general theme in mind (pirates, dungeons, cults, etc) i'll be happy to take a look and see if I can't help you find something that'll work for you. And as soon as you make an official game so its visible on the LFG tool, you'll get a ton of potential players, so that won't be an issue. Never enough Pathfinder GMs. 
You kill one dragon and you're already wanting to control one? Lol, just messing with you man. Get with me this week and I'll help you out. I'm not gonna let you see the other side of the screen cause you're gonna be playing it, but I can still give you ideas of what to do. GMing isn't exactly the easiest thing to do when you're this fresh. It took me a few years before I even became decent at running a game lol. But yeah, get with me this week and I'll help you out.
