  • Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I hold a BFA in Musical Theatre from the State University of New York at Fredonia. As a trained singer, storyteller, and educator, I have spent the past 4 years working with babies and toddlers, nurturing their growth through music and creative expression.
