I grew up in a suburban small town in upstate New York with my loving and outrageously supportive parents, and two protective older brothers who certainly helped me stand my ground. My small town was big in the arts and theatre, and I soon began acting at the age of 6. My first production Alice In Wonderland (where I played the White Rabbit), gave me a taste of theatre and I have been hooked ever since. Having acted for years on end, I then desired to explore a new field of art while keeping theatre in my life as well. I reached out to an agency, auditioned for them, and found myself soon signed, and loving commercial print. It is an art in itself, and one in which I found myself. Something that theatre, musical theatre, and commercial print all have in common is their ability to capture an audience and make them believe. To me this is the most influential experience because it can shape a human, evoke feelings in them, and influence the ways in which they view the world. Now as I get ready for graduation in May 2018, I am also getting ready to further my journey and career in performing.
