“I think I always told myself I would audition for the top musical theater schools, and if I didn't get into one of my top five schools, that would be my sign.”
“I fall more on the insecure side of things.”
“I encourage people to be floaters: don't stay in one group for too long.”
“My high school experience - and I think a lot of people feel this way - was complicated and intense, and I learned a lot about female relationships during that time.”
“I like country music!”
“Growing up, I watched a lot of Shirley Temple movies.”
“When I was little, my mom made all of my costumes.”
“I had trouble in high school, and it has really pushed me to do something big and make a difference.”
“I think my best memory was taking my baby sisters trick-or-treating for the first time.”
“I hone my craft. I keep going. I light a little fire under myself. I look around for roles that will challenge me. And I'm grateful for all the ones I get.”
“Growing up, my father coached my basketball team, and my mother drove me into St. Louis for various rehearsals between musical productions and Radio Disney.”
“I'm sure I tried being mean at one point, and I don't think it worked. It's too much work.”
“I wasn't a cheerleader in high school, but I was the leader of my soccer team.”
“I have twin sisters who are 12 years younger than me, so watching them grow up has been a big highlight.”
“There is power in having a friend group because you have this bond that helps you navigate girl world, and it creates safety and self-esteem. But if you speak up to the leader, you risk that social isolation or not having a group and feeling really left out.”
“The whole college process for musical theatre majors is much different than others. The school sort of chooses you! Everyone knows which schools are the top schools and what tier each one is in. So if you get into a good school, you put it on your resume, and you already have a great reputation when you get to New York.”
“I watched 'Rugrats' and 'Spongebob' because my dad liked 'Spongebob' too, so I loved having that on.”
“I was valedictorian of my class until I switched to a neighboring high school, but I maintained the grades and involvement. Switching schools was tough.”
“I try to pride myself on being nice to everyone and not letting egos get in the way.”
“When you're young, it's hard to see the reality behind such a demanding career, but I loved it, and I couldn't see myself doing anything else. So in my mind, from the minute I had to seriously start thinking about my future, I knew musical theatre was it for me.”
