| I moved to Tampa, FL when I was seven - and lived there until I was almost 22 years old. In that time I attended 5 different schools and 2 colleges. That's the FL education system for you. I started getting interested in Theatre as soon as we moved to FL - and proceded to be in every school play I could be in from grades 2 - 12. I fell in with a local community theatre's children's group when I was 14 - the Carrollwood Players. I "grew up" with them and became a regular in the adult theatre's group as well. After I graduated high school, I went to USF to major in Theatre Education, but found the program to be less than what I wanted. So I applied to the American Musical & Dramatic Academy in NY, where my friends Amanda & Jessica had gone. I was accepted into the Dramatic Track - but had to postpone my going due to finances. In the meanwhile I took classes at HCC and moved to Temple Terrace with my best friend, Tammy. Later, we both applied again to AMDA and were accepted to the Musical Track - so we moved to Manhattan in February 2000. Due to financial problems though, I left the school and lived in Brooklyn and Harlem for a while. Now I'm back home here in Tampa and trying to get up enough money to eventually move back officially :) |
