My life in musical theater began when I was little, performing in community youth productions. I fell in love with the feeling of stepping into another world and telling stories through music. That love grew as I joined larger productions, performing in How the Grinch Stole Christmas! at The Old Globe Theater and more recently as Arista in The Little Mermaid at Poway High. I’ve also worked behind the scenes as a video producer and editor, helping capture and polish performances for Kids on Stage Productions. Through every role, onstage and off, I’ve learned resilience, collaboration, and how storytelling can bring people together.

Children’s Youth Theater:
My life in musical theater began at the age of 8 when I was old enough to join a community theater. Over 7 years, I gained experience as I performed in productions of Annie, Beauty and the Beast, Mary Poppins, James and the Giant Peach, Peter Pan, Singin’ In the Rain, and Alice and Wonderland. Through these productions, I fell in love with the feeling of stepping into another world and telling stories through music.
Professional Theater:
My professional debut in musical theater began at The Grove in Anaheim where I performed songs from Annie and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat.
I subsequently performed in the WOW Festival for the La Jolla Play House…
…and sang on a grammy nominated children’s album produced by Kathryn the Grape.
In 2019 and 2022-2023, I performed as Betty-Lou Who, Cindy-Lou Who, and Annie Who, at the Old Globe Theater in Balboa Park, San Diego, in How the Grinch Stole Christmas!
Zoom Musicals:
During the pandemic, when theaters went dark, I kept performing in virtual musicals, learning how to connect with audiences even through a screen.
