About Me
Hi! I was raised in a small town about 30-45 minutes out from Orlando, Florida called Oviedo. I started out just like every other little girl in my small town: in a dance studio taking tap, ballet, and jazz classes when I was 3-4 years old. However, where my heart lies is the voice studio. I started taking voice lessons at 5 years old and have never stopped since. I started training with the intent to be just a singer, nothing more than just a pretty voice. But when my sister started doing theatre, I was introduced to the idea of being more than that. My first ever show was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory JR. where I played Mrs. Bucket at the ripe age of 8 years old.
When I was 10, I switched community theatres to be able to push myself and my abilities more. At this new community theatre, I competed at the national level in theatre. I have competed at the Junior Theatre Festival in Atlanta, GA and at the National Performing Arts Festival at Disney World from the time I was in fifth grade up until I graduated high school. During that time, I was also competing with my middle school junior thespian troupe, and have also competed at the High School Thespian Levels at both District and State competitions. I grew up in a very competitive environment, but it does not mean that I’ve coasted. I am a hard worker, and am determined to be the best version of myself every day.
In addition to theatre, I have grown up with an affinity for football (Go Bills!), a love for live music, and I love to collect vinyls. I am also a Swiftie, but love alternative/emo music like Fall Out Boy, Green Day, and Paramore.
I sincerely believe that I was put on this Earth to help people, and the way that I know how to do that is to entertain and take people to a better place for two and half hours every night.
