I began with dance, doing ballet at 3, then tap, jazz, modern. Then I sang in church choirs, learned how to play clarinet and drums, sang with rock bands and only then did I get into musical theatre.

I want to make smart choices.

The day you stop learning and creating must be the most boring day.

I love to sing random stuff. That's exciting for me.

I love all things Christmas.

It's one of those dreams I thought would be unattainable for someone like me, who came from nowhere.

We all have an escape. Mine was theater.
