I am a multidisciplinary artist, performer, and community advocate with a strong foundation in the performing arts and leadership. I bring over ten years of dance training, ten years of gymnastics, fifteen years as a visual artist, four years of acting, five years of pageant experience, and extensive musical training. My music background includes five years of band with a focus on percussion, two years performing on drum set and in jazz band, and four years of choral experience. Growing up in a rural community shaped my perspective on opportunity and reinforced my belief in using creativity to bring people together.
Music and performance have been central to my development as both an artist and a leader. Through band, choir, dance, acting, and pageantry, I have gained experience in ensemble collaboration, discipline, and performance under pressure. Percussion and jazz performance taught me rhythmic precision, adaptability, and teamwork, while choir strengthened my musicianship, listening skills, and ability to blend within a group. These experiences have helped me grow as a versatile performer across multiple artistic spaces.
Service and leadership remain important parts of my work. I have contributed over ten years to Piper & Aubrey’s Giving Tree, helping organize and deliver holiday gifts to families in need. Through FCCLA and 4-H, I have taken on leadership and mentoring roles, including leading FCCLA STAR projects that focused on communication, teamwork, and personal growth among younger students.
Looking ahead, I plan to pursue a degree in music technology with a minor in dance, allowing me to combine my performance experience with technical skills and creative production. My goal is to continue developing as an artist and leader while creating opportunities for others through collaboration, performance, and service.
