“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
—Robert Frost—

🔹Plans:
Now that I’ve completed my Master’s degree, I will continue performing and living in Orange County, California. I am working on publishing a couple of children’s books and a Christmas Jukebox Musical as co-creator and writer. At the same time, I am applying for performance/directing opportunities around OC and working on my teaching credential,
🔹Fun facts:
Artists I look up to are Julie Andrews, Susan Egan, and Alan Menken.
Random Talent: I had to learn how to fake sneeze for a “sneezing song” (bizarre, but true) in an elementary choir class. So, I ended up getting pretty good at it.
I was in a musical opening act before M.C. Hammer performed at the Brea-Fest.
My two dream roles are Belle (Disney’s Beauty and the Beast) and Ella (Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella).
