Welcome,
From an early age, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to creativity, despite being a shy child with a fear of performing. My passion to share my art soon outweighed my fear. An unforgettable moment came at age eight when I sang "Over the Rainbow" in a talent show, marking the beginning of my artistic journey. I even stepped into the role of “The Squash” in my classroom’s Halloween play, which sparked a fire that’s burned brightly ever since.
My love for music continued in the tender embrace of classical voice training during my college and graduate years. Opera opened a world of wonder, performing La Fée in Massenet’s Cendrillon, Donna Anna in Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Papagena in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte were some of the highlights.
However, as much as I loved opera, I found myself irresistibly drawn to musical theatre where I always felt more at home. As Rose in The Carols, Missy in The Marvelous Wonderettes, Marian in The Music Man, Phoebe in A Gentleman's Guide to Love & Murder, I danced through tales woven with music, where every step was a note and every breath a melody- and I never looked back.
Currently residing in Philadelphia, I sing weekly at Old St. Joseph’s, the city’s oldest Roman Catholic church. I’m also proud to be a member of the Philadelphia Symphonic Choir, where I contribute to the city’s vibrant musical landscape. In addition, I teach in my full-sized piano and voice studio, sharing my passion for music with students as they develop their own artistic voices.
Being an artist is often a journey filled with uncertainty, highs, and lows, but it’s one that brings a deep sense of purpose and adventure to my life. Through every challenge, I am reminded of the transformative power of storytelling and music and how it connects us to something larger than ourselves.
