ABOUT ME

I am a northern California native from a region that was once the egg capital of the country. I started singing when I was eight years old and performing in productions shortly after that, and sort of fell in love with that art form. Since then I have been on the road of bettering my skills in both of those area. I graduated from school a year ago, and I have been living and working in New York city. By nature, i am a free spirited, earthy, artistic; I love culture and people, animals, the outdoors, and learning new things. I learned to be a river raft guide a few years ago with a non profit that specializes in taking inner city kids and people with disabilities into wilderness environments, which has changed me in countless ways.

PHILOSOPHY

A literal and complete openness to the world.
