I don’t really have a specific song that I grew up to, but I know my parents played a whole bunch of MJ, Prince, Stevie Wonder, and a lot of other great artists while I was growing up. What resonates so strongly with me is I recognized how passionate those artists were with their music, I love and respect that so much.

When did you realize you wanted to pursue a career as an artist and actor? Do you remember the exact moment?

No, not really! I grew up doing musical theater, so I was always acting and singing as a kid. I always wanted to be an artist and pursue the career but what also sparked it was watching my older sister Veronica doing her thing. She’s amazing at singing and acting too!

Tell us more about your projects as an actor. What has been your favorite and why?

I’ve been on a lot of awesome projects with Netflix’s “Alexa & Katie”, Disney+ “Big Shot”, and even got to film a movie “Max Winslow and the House of Secrets”! It’s been a surreal journey. I’m very grateful for each
