What was your first love, music or acting?
I'd have to say both because I love to sing and act and I love it when I can combine the 2 together. I grew up watching movies and TV shows that infused a lot of music like Grease, Hairspray, Annie, High School Musical, Backstage, & Austin & Alley. I love music and acting.
What drew you to music ?
2015 was a rough year for our family. We lost a lot of our loved ones including my grandfather & my 1st cousin. I turned to music as my outlet for healing. It was hard to talk about all the loved ones I lost but it was easy for me to put my feelings in a song & sing it. Music helped the healing process a lot.
What artist inspires you?
Whitney Houston & Beyonce are my big musical influences.
How has it been, being such a young actress on a big show like Jane The Virgin?
Jane the Virgin was a fun experience.
What's your favorite thing about being on
set?
It was a fun Carnival set and I got to go on a lot
of the rides and eat carnival food.
Your resume also says you are a dancer? What is your favorite thing about the dance world?
Dancing is a fun way for me to tell the story or the meaning of the song. I never get tired of dancing, it's always a fun way to relax and get turnt up.
Why is it important to be a triple threat like yourself?
Being able to pursue all my talents in acting, singing, songwriting, dancing and modeling is so much fun because I'm not limited to one aspect.
What advice would you give to new actresses your age?
Starting young in this industry is fun and hard at the same time. But my advice would be to work hard at what you love doing and to have fun doing what you love to do. Hard work will pay off in time but having fun will keep things happy for you so you don't get burnt out. Just enjoy the journey!
