I love to sing.
Performing at LAOpera's Summer Youth Camp
I have always loved to sing and perform, and I hope to continue
learning and growing as a vocalist in the coming years.
After moving to Los Angeles, I was lucky enough to audition and be accepted into the National Children's Chorus(NCC). I have been performing with the choir for the past 6 years and have learned so much under the artistic direction of Luke McEndarfar, with private vocal training in Opera with Prof. Michael Dean of UCLA.
As a member of the Scholars and Premier Divisions in NCC I have performed at the Hollywood Bowl under the conducting of Gustavo Dudamel, and I have performed with the Los Angeles Master Chorale at Disney Concert Hall under the conducting of Eric Whitacre. Additionally, I have performed with NCC at UCLA's Royce Hall and Our Lady of Angels church. Last year I had a small choir role in the LA performance of the San Francisco Opera Parallele's production of Dead Man Walking, and in the summer of 2017 I expanded my opera experience and training by the LAOpera Summer Camp productions of Brundibar and the character role of Flaska in Friedl.
I also love R&B, Folk, and Show-tunes and am often drawing inspiration from these genres. As I continue my higher education and training, I plan to pursue a career in Theater, Classical Music, and Contemporary Music.
