Biography
I'm a lot more smiley than this photo looks! 🙂 I am a performer, musician, and music director based in Chicago! I have worked as Install Music Supervisor for Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings since 2016 and am currently the fleet-wise Music Supervisor for all onboard productions of SIX the Musical. On land, I tend to play+sing a lot of rock and pop in clubs in & around Chicagoland. I am mainly a parts player here, getting into the nitty gritty of sounds and dupes on Mainstage for original music and full album cover shows! Thankful for Maestra and the impact it continues to have on the industry.
