I have taken a numerous amounts of acting classes and musical theater workshops starting in 5th grade until now. I am 27 years old with 3 kids, and growing up I was highly involved in the acting and music industry. Whether I was an extra in the Elvis Presley musical, or in the pit playing my clarinet for musicals like crazy for you and guys and dolls. Or I'm acting as a lead in a one act competition, non verbal one act competition. Or I'm being casted as an extra or a smaller role in a play my high school offered and musicals outside of that. I was in the worst Christmas pagent ever with my sister and we both played as singing angels, we were both in another musical our local church had going on called time is now, me and a group of people in high school wrote and performed our own musical for the entire county to come see for free as a requirement in our musical theater workshops. I love acting and singing and dancing but as soon as I got out of high school I unfortunately lost my sister and ended up spiraling down a bad path in life. Which forced me to give up my dreams of acting one day. Hopefully this will be my come back onto a stage again. I'm a married mother with the most wonderful children in the whole world and I would love to start acting and performing again and reliving my dreams I used to live as a young high school kid in a small town.
