Why did you apply for Next on Stage?

I applied for Next on Stage because my voice teacher told me about it. I thought I would submit a video and see what would happen!

Share a memory from seeing a past production!

The first Broadway show I ever saw was "The Lion King" and I was MESMERIZED. I went with my grandma and mom, and it was amazing watching our culture come alive on stage. It's something I will never forget.

Who is a theater educator that has had an impact on you?

Sabrina Learman. She has never given up on me, and is the sweetest soul. I trust her with my voice and that means a lot.

Give a shoutout!

All glory to God!

Share a fun fact about yourself!

I have a major fear of birds. How do I live in the city where there's pigeons everywhere I turn? Once again.....all glory to God.
