Spotlight Q&A
- What are you currently working on or working towards?
I am currently working with Prather Productions on “In The Heights” as Yolanda/Ensemble/Carla
cover at the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre in Fort Myers, FL. We close May 14th! I
am also in their children’s theatre show “No Dogs Allowed” as Carmen!
- What’s your current anthem/theme song?
“Levitating” by Dua Lipa will always get me hyped and ready to conquer my day!
- Share a crazy/funny/embarrassing WSU story.
I was a junior when the Covid-19 pandemic started so switching to virtual learning
half way through the school year has to be the craziest thing that happened in my
time at Wichita State.
- What’s your latest obsession?
Alani energy drinks have been getting me through my 9 show week schedule, so I might
have to go with those!
