Seeing Through a New Lens

My goal as an artist and storyteller is to help the audience see through a new lens they might not have experienced previously. Art allows us to walk in other’s shoes and explore all the world’s stories in order to be well-rounded and multifaceted humans. Art can be used to empower, motivate, and educate. My art is not only a representation of who I am and aim to be, but it challenges me to understand other points of views.

Singing For Smiles

I use performance to advocate for what I am passionate about. During my time in the Miss America Organization, I became the founder of Singing for Smiles, an initiative advocating and providing music therapy for those with Alzheimer’s. This philanthropic entity emphasizes the importance of the arts for communication as well as physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. I am passionate about using music to better the world and connect with others in infinite ways. I aim to continue on my path of changing hearts, challenging hate, spreading kindness, and sharing joy with everyone I encounter.
