Starting Arts

My journey with Starting Arts began when I was just 12 years old, and it's a profound honor to now return to my roots as an arts educator collaborating with them. I teach acting and music classes across Bay Area school districts and direct musicals and plays for students of all ages. It is my greatest passion to inspire the next generation of performers, just as my own teachers once inspired me.

American Conservatory Theater

After completing my primary education, I embarked on my professional journey with the American Conservatory Theater, immersing myself in a world of stage exploration. Through their esteemed conservatory, the San Francisco Semester, and various workshops, I was able to flourish and lay the foundation for the professional career I am so proud of today.
