About Me
My Beginnings
Since a young age, I've been in love with writing, arts and entertainment. I would sit in my room for hours with paper and pen, and just write. My mom would always have an encouraging word for me, which made it easy for me to pursue my passion.
My Favorite Work
One of the best feelings to me, is when the audience feels connected to my performance. I want my audience to feel like they have been on a journey that they will never forget. I am so excited about my new project "What Fairytale". The emotional ride that you are going to have with "What Fairytale" is going to be life changing!
My Life Today
I'm very lucky to be doing what I love. I have met interesting new people, who share the same passion as I do. I hope we are able to work together soon!
