March 2024 // Move to NYC!

I finally made the jump to NYC and I couldn't be happier!

 

Step One: get a library card (check).

Step Two: get a job (check).

Step Three: find cool collaborative performance opportunities (...).

February 2024 // Performing Original Music

I've been diving deeper into my original music lately and had the privilege of performing some of it for some lovely Kentucky audiences while I was visiting home. I've been itching to release some new tunes, and an album is finally in the works!

September 2023 // Back at Sea!

I'm thrilled to be sailing on Holland America's ms Rotterdam from September 9th - January 14th, dazzling audiences in the duo piano show Billboard Onboard, as well as being a featured performer in a stage show called Off The Charts. This is my fourth ship in collaboration with Holland America and Windish Entertainment. I loved being able to travel to some of my places and play groovy tunes! Click below for some show clips.

March 2023 // NYC and Nashville Debuts

IMG_1778.jpeg

I made my NYC debut at The Green Room 42, working with re:Draft Creative as a featured singer in the cabaret production Wrapped. I had a blast collaborating with so many other artists on this unique look at our pop-cultural landscape through the lens of Spotify playlists.

 

In the very same month, I headed down to The Electric Jane in Nashville to perform a few tunes with dear friend Kevin John.

 

Links to both performances are below if you're interested!

Summer 2022 // Billboard Onboard

From 2022-2024, I've traveled to over 30 countries and played piano/vocal renditions of hundreds of hit songs. I began my cruise ship journey in July 2022 aboard the ms Zuiderdam with Holland America Line as part of a duo piano show called Billboard Onboard. Alongside my trusty partner, I perform lounge shows every night, playing everything from 1950s ballads to country to raucous rock-n-roll! We are also featured in a World Stage production entitled Off The Charts, a whirlwind journey of Billboard hits through the years.

​

I've definitely been bitten by the travel bug since joining ships, and I can't wait to see where I go next. If you're interested in seeing some snippits of ship performances, click below!

Fall 2021 // Florida Studio Theatre

In September 2021, I began a nine-month apprenticeship with Florida Studio Theatre in Sarasota, FL. During my time there, I wore many hats (and tried on brand new hats, too!).

 

I understudied multiple tracks in FST's mainstage and cabaret shows, namely Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story and rip-roaring country music show, Friends In Low Places. Simultaneously, I balanced a touring TYA production with a group called The Playmakers as a part of FST's Write A Play program. We held playwriting workshops in classrooms, as well as improvising brand new plays using kids' on-the-spot ideas. I also worked hand-in-hand with FST's resident improv troupe, improvising goofy tunes and providing musical accompaniment for shows like Comedy Freestyle.

 

Oh - and did I mention I was also working in the box office and reading plays for new play development? My time at FST is one I'm definitely grateful for!

August 2021 // Debut EP Release

My debut EP "I Wrote This For You" officially dropped on August 10th, 2021. It features five original songs and can be found on all streaming platforms. Largely inspired by the works of Joni Mitchell, Sara Bareilles, and Carole King, "I Wrote This For You" is a lyric-driven, folk/pop love letter to each of its listeners.
