Career Goal

I spent my twenties fortunate enough to make a career out of performing. I always knew by my thirties I’d want a more stable occupation and am excited about my role helping children nurture and grow as emerging artists. I am honored to have the opportunity to work with children of all ages and to pass on what I have learned through my own educational experiences, and my professional experience while focusing on their educational standards.
