My artistic roots go back over 20 years, having grown up around family members who did theater, choir, dance, and slam poetry. I found my way to performance when I auditioned for my first show at eight years old. I’ve been non-stop ever since. I've participated both on and offstage in many Albuquerque children’s theater and community theater productions. As a soloist, I led my high school show choir in “Bohemian Rhapsody,” which I consider to be the greatest song ever written. Around that time, I played several lead roles in musicals, and studied classical singing, landing me a spot in NM All-State Choir. Toward the end of high school, I ran my own theater company, “Get In The Fridge Productions,” in which I produced and directed several shows and events, including the musicals Godspell and Spring Awakening. In 2020, I was chosen to study at The Institute For American Musical Theatre (IAMT) in NYC, where I studied with many Broadway talents including the longest running Elphaba in Wicked, Jennifer DiNoia and got glowing performance reviews from Broadway casting director Merri Sugarman. Additionally, I participated in the R.Evolucion Latina Beyond Workshop in NYC in 2025 led by Luis Salgado, who worked on the original Broadway production of In The Heights. While my passion lies in performing, I am equally driven to produce, direct, and provide for my Burque community.

I am a Vocalist, Actor, Songwriter, and Dancer who's been performing since the age of six. I grew up loving musical theater and dance and began Belly Dancing with my mom at a young age. I started training classically in voice as a child and participated in opera camps for several years as well as joining the New Mexico Symphonic Youth Choir. I also competed locally and regionally in my adolescent years making the All-State Choir three years in a row. Meanwhile, I was performing contemporary styles such as musical theater, pop, and rock in school events and city wide talent shows. I've enjoyed participating in school musicals and community theater shows such as Samuel's production of Godspell. I was recently asked to perform the National Anthem at the New Mexico Wine and Chile Festival in Santa Fe. Since then I have been strengthening my techniques in different styles of dance, theater, vocal studies, directing, and storytelling.
