about Me
I am a New York based performer and singer/songwriter from Orlando, Florida and a recent graduate of Penn State’s BFA musical theatre program. I started performing in elementary school because it’s what all the cool kids did and I’ve stuck with it ever since. Somewhere in there I developed a deep passion for music and songwriting, nourished by the incredibly talented people I was surrounded by. I am a firm believer in loving what you do and doing what you love.
