Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

I have a beautiful and inspiring twin sister who is extremely talented! We always used to be a very dynamic duo on stage. She chose to become a veterinarian and does very well with her career. We started dancing and singing at a very young age and we lived for it - I just couldn't give it up and now I have made it my life! I am currently back at University, doing a certificate in Education so that I can be qualified to teach High School Music Theory. I am exploring all of my options but I am very excited to keep showing the stage what I am made of while I still can!
