MY
STORY
I grew up surrounded by saguaros, heat, and suburban moms in Phoenix, AZ. Went to Veritas Preparatory Academy for middle and high school where I wore a plaid skirt, took a two hour philosophy class everyday and happily missed most of the typical high school experience. Then I spread my wings and went off to Illinois Wesleyan University and got a BFA in Acting and a minor in Dance (and Psychology!).
My inner nerd adores performing Shakespeare (Texas Shakespeare Festival and Flagstaff Shakespeare Festival) because of the text analysis and c'mon the poetry, I mean WOW. But, I also love being in musicals, high-kicking, tapping, choreographing, and composing whether it's a Gregorian style chant for a war play or funky music on my guitar for a TYA musical.
The Latest
2021 marked a huge milestone for me. I have now released 2 singles on Spotify (and all the other streaming platforms)!
I've been writing songs since I was 6, and while I've composed professionally for various theaters, this is the first time I have so publicly shared my personal songs. It has definitely been one of the most terrifying and gratifying artistic experiences to date. I've been blown away with the responses of people who were touched by my songs and find them relatable.
