I was born in Chicago, and spent most of my life in Rogers Park. I fell in love with singing and acting at Lane Tech high school, as it was always a dream I wished to pursue. I participated in all of my high school's musicals as a lead role, and I participated in their annual I-Days where I learned choreographed salsa and taekwondo. Along with this, I love to play the guitar and write my own music. No matter what it is, I am determined to succeed in any project I pursue. I am an aspiring actor and model.
