"and we're almost ready to go but apparently I'm hyper!"

To my core, I am a consumer. Whether that be of cheese-itz, reality tv, thriller novels, I am constantly filling my cup with random information. My southern drawl and obnoxious cackle are evident "giveaways" of my all-American girl next door upbringing, but being in theatre since I was 7 years old has transformed my life. I fell in love with performing when I saw the national tour of "Annie" the musical, and like most, dramatic, seven year olds I watched the show and thought "I want hundreds of people to clap for me when I sing!" The following year, I saw the national tour of Wicked and completely fell in love with musical theatre; and that love continues to grow the more I encompass myself in music.

I thrive in social situations where I can help those around me. Connecting is one of my driving forces, and not just because I can talk your ear off :)

Whether I'm driving friends to class, or volunteering my time in greater service for others, finding ways I can give back to organizations that have helped get me where I am today has become an important pillar of who I am. Tying all my actions to serve a greater purpose grounds me, and keeps me in touch with my craft.
