The Story that is

I am a singer/songwriter from Miami/Hollywood Florida. I grew up as a dancer which led me to my love for the arts and musical theatre. I attended New World School of the Arts for high school in the musical theatre department. I knew I had to be in New York, not only for my career, but I felt very attached to this city in general. I attended Marymount Manhattan College for a year before booking the first national tour of Brooklyn The Musical, understudying Diana Degarmo. Being able to show my parents my progress and that I actually may know what I'm doing, they let me take off for "a year" of college to pursue my career. I knew I was never going to go back to college. I think my parents did, too. The musical theatre industry is a brutal one, though. Especially when you don't exactly fit into any one type. I was either too old, or too young, too short or too tall, too ethnic or not enough. There was always something and I wasn't finding substantial work. A few shows here and there but nothing that I could actually be proud of and grow from. And that's why I'm here, creating my own work now, and it has really surpassed my wildest imagination. I started writing during an unhealthy relationship. I had my friends banjo and didn't know a goddamn thing. I somehow was able to strum out my first song and well... the rest is history.
