Q: Why do you like acting and singing?
A: I’ve always had a passion for singing for as long as I can remember. I’ve always also loved performing arts. To be honest though, I’d never really gotten “into” acting until my Junior Year in High School, in which ironically, was the year I was never in anything to do with speech/drama and I happened to get a lead role. Ever since then I have been hooked. I’ve wanted to become an actual singer though since at least 1st grade. I love singing and acting just because I let myself go when I’m onstage. I love being able to portray different characters, I love being able to show the audience what kind of things I can do onstage, and I love reactions once it’s all over with. Another HUGE thing I love about singing and acting is that fact that you’re in the publics eyes for the most part and that is huge to me. Im really big on my morals and Im really big into helping people and being a good role model for people of all ages, so this type of business is something definitely for that. Overall, its a very rewarding ‘career’.
Q: What are your goals in the industry?
A: I’d like to one day be recognized for my talent, whether it being “famous” or not. I’d just like to be known in the publics eyes. I’ve kinda gotten a good start on it, but I’d like to have a bigger fan-base from around the nation. I’d like to be a Disney performer someday and obviously broadway, but I’d also love to be an actual recording artist in the modern/punk rock field or country.
Q: Who would you like to tour with?
A: To be honest, ANYONE would be an honor! Of course Im going to pick my favorites, but without being bias, Id like to tour with the following just because of their talent and pure amazingness :) (Of course it all comes with what genre I decide to be in as well) Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride, Rascal Flatts, Paramore, Lady Gaga, Adam Lambert, Britney Spears, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Bon Jovi…….as for musicals Id like to tour with…ANYTHING! Wicked preferably.
Q: Has your family been supportive of you singing and acting?
A: For the most part…I started getting more into Modeling and some don’t like that as much, but its all about peoples opinions. Nothing I do is beyond my boundaries and they know that, and I’ve think they’ve learned to accept that. As for singing, my families usually been the main ones telling me I should never let go of this talent I have, I should be out there recording, and I should be out there following my dream and same for acting.
Q: What started you in this career?
A: Singing? I think it just came within family history. I came from a grandma and a mother who LOVED to sing, and I think I kind of picked up on that and ran with it. As for acting, my speech coach in high school really persuaded me to try it because they thought Id be really super talented in it, turns out, I was…Modeling, I’ve just always LOVED being in front and behind the camera so it was always a secret hobby I guess I’ve always wanted to try and finally decided to go for it and it’s been amazing ever since :)
Q: Who influences you?
A: Rascal Flatts for numorous reasons. Their music and they themselves have helped me more than anyone can ever imagine. Of course my close friends and family, and where would I be without God.
Q: What should people know about you?
A: Really that Im just a good person all around. Im extremely down to earth, I love having a good time, I know when to be serious when needed, I can ALWAYS make people laugh, Im a total jokester, and a total tom boy at heart. I grew up in small town Iowa what do you expect?! Id like people to know that if they give me the time of day, Id give them the world…thats my motto to my fans. I love each and every one of them and I love talking to them all. I also would like people to know that I’ve dedicated my life to helping people…whether it be advise or physically helping someone. I’ve been through a lot in my life, and I’ll be the first to say life truly sucks…but I want to be that person that people turn to. Like I said before, Im a role model for people of all ages, and I build myself on that everyday.
Q: Do you have any songs released?
A: Not as of right now but some may or may not be in the process…. ;) Just saying! I can’t release some information yet :)
Q: Where do you find your confidence to perform?
A: Its who I am…I live for the moment when you walk onstage, introduce yourself, sing your first note, give your first line…Im all about that adrenaline rush you get….I live for those moments each and everyday :)
