: About Me

I am a professional aerialist and dancer in Los Angeles. I am lucky to get to use my passion for movement and performance on a daily basis. I am new to Helium and just learning the ropes!

I have been writing as long as I can remember being able to hold a pen. I started collecting my poetry a year ago in hopes to publish one day...

My passion is ...

passion itself!

I know too much about ...

Nutrition

My parents always told me ...

fulfill every commitment

My childhood ambition ...

I wanted to be a pediatrician, engineer, princess

My favorite memory ...

putting on the whole musical "South Pacific" with just my little sister and a handful of props!

Why I write ...

because I have to! It's all inside me and it has to come out.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

reading "Mistress of the Art of Death" by Ariana Franklin; Watching HOUSE MD.; Listening to "Spring Awakening" the Original Broadway Cast and it's fantastic

My first job ...

Health Food Store... I worked in the juice bar slinging vegan/vegetarian hash :)

My best moment ...

Placing overall in my senior dance competition with my little sister. I'll never forget it.

My inspiration ...

Every child I see going to school or to dance or whatever sport/activity. I am so inspired at the hard work and ambition in children... it pushes me to act myself.

As many tears as I can shed and pray to god unheard, I wonder of the usefulness of any spoken word.
