Years of secondary education


Hard-working high school student and aspiring speech-language pathologist looking to use skills developed from my volunteer work to support the next generation of learners.
Years of secondary education
This year, I was asked to assist with a glee club at Grace Arts Live. Club members learn vocal techniques, harmonies, and music theory so they can represent our theater in the community. I hand out music packets, demonstrate exercises, and lead harmonies.
Every week, I tutor kids in math. Any time I received pay for my tutoring sessions, my checks have gone directly to my college savings account.
Several times, I have represented my community theater, Grace Arts Live, and performed for the senior citizens at a local retirement home, The Views.
To help my costumer, I have taken some costumes home and alter them myself with hand sewing and sewing machines so they are fixed or they fit the actor better. I have done this for several shows at Grace Arts Live since November of 2022.
For Grace Arts Live's production of Chicago, I sang all of the songs with the cast from the orchestra stands. Since this production had heavy dancing and a live orchestra, the director wanted two pit singers to help support the cast in all of the group numbers. I was honored to be one of the pit singers for this production, and I got the opportunity to sing with a live band from Palm Springs, California.
Grace Arts Live presented a youth workshop where a production of Honk Jr. gets done in two weeks. For two sessions, I dedicated my time helping groups of kids with music, dancing, blocking, and other activities.
For Grace Arts Live's productions of Peter Pan, Spamalot, Grease, and Honk Jr., I operated a spotlight, adding to the lighting. My job was to listen for signals from my stage manager on the headset and follow the actor instructed to hit.
Grace Arts Live presented a youth workshop where a production of Madagascar Jr. gets done in two weeks. For two sessions, I dedicated my time helping groups of kids with music, dancing, blocking, and other activities.
Grace Arts Live presented a youth workshop where a production of The Jungle Book Kids gets done in two weeks. For three sessions, I dedicated my time helping groups of kids with music, dancing, blocking, and other activities.
