Affiliations

As much as I love being involved in the Fashion industry, my whole life I've been singing and thankfully, had the opportunity to devote a lot of my studies in Musical Theatre, Commerical Music/Studio etiquette and music production . This initially started in middle school when I first found my passion for music when I was cast in a local theatre production of "The Music Man". Fast forward to my college studies where I attended The American Musical and Dramatic Academy in both cities, NY and LA. Lately, I've been focusing on studio work (working closely with a producer) on my own projects and singing back up for my friend's band, @yuhgirlfran.
