I have always had a love for the arts. Singing and dancing have been a part of my life since I was four years old. I’ve been taking voice lessons since then, and music is a huge part of who I am. I even had the honor of singing the national anthem for a US Presidents Family. Along with singing, I’m also a dancer and have been training in various styles for years. My love for theater blossomed in eighth grade, and I officially joined my high school theater class in my sophomore year. Since then, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to play the female lead roles in two productions: "One Stoplight Town" (as Trish) and "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" (as the White Witch).

My love for theater doesn’t stop at school productions. For Christmas, my mom and I took a trip to New York City, where we saw legendary shows like The Great Gatsby, Little Shop of Horrors, Hamilton, Hadestown, and The Rockettes. Fun fact: I even played Hamilton in my dance studio’s musical theater number!

Beyond school and the arts, in my personal life I’m energetic and talkative, which is why I was voted "Miss School Spirit" and "Most Likely to Have a Talk Show" in my class superlatives. I love hanging out with my friends and I am always down for a good time! 

I also have a deep appreciation for travel—I’m a certified scuba diver and enjoy exploring new places, especially those with breathtaking views. Reading and writing are other passions of mine, and I especially love poetry and songwriting. I even recorded a song I wrote! In my spare time, I like to capture nature through my photography and play a little guitar.

An animal lover at heart, I’ve had the unique experience of fostering an abandoned owl while waiting for raptor rescue. It was an incredible experience that deepened my love for animals and nature.
