I was a child actor and model. When you meet me now I probably seem like a bookish person, but when I was young I was focused was on my entertainment career. In Middle School I started to become pretty successful. I got an agent, I was an American Girl model, I was getting cast in everything I auditioned for, and I started auditioning for Broadway shows. My dreams since I was eight years old were starting to come true. But High School was approaching too and I had to choose whether I wanted to dedicate my life entirely to acting and modeling.

    Studio A taught me so much valuable information that continues to help me in the roles that I am blessed to land in, I really hope that Studio B will not only exercise everything that I learned in Studio A but continue to branch off of that and help deepen my knowledge.

Back then, I was very uncertain about any career goals I have had.…
