More about me:
I have been a performer since I could walk. When I was 3 I walked right up on stage during my sister’s talent show performance of “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!” and danced around like I had rehearsed it. My parents encouraged me to study music and dance since a young age and I am so fortunate to have had that support. It brings me fulfillment to see joy on the faces of audiences.
I have affinity for collaboration and I love helping the dream come to life. Let’s work together on something special!
