Hey guys! Life has been crazy like always!

Last week I turned 18 and had senior prom. Now the focus is finishing my high school career strong. I’ve had Senioritis since the first day of freshman year, but it is hitting me REALLY hard right now haha!

Once I graduate, I will be doing full time music! I’m soooo excited to be able to put my all into my craft and not be occupied with school at the same time!

To celebrate graduation, my best friend Ariana and I are doing a little European tour which we have been planning since we were 13! My mom is also making my favorite foods on graduation day, which I’m SUPER excited for because I don’t eat unhealthy things that often; but I think graduating high school is a great excuse to eat Mac ‘n’ cheese, chocolate gooey butter cookies, and tacos with mom’s delicious salsa!

I can’t wait to show you all what I’m working on and to share this journey with you!

Until next time…

XOXO,

Life Update!

March has been a crazy month. I just got back from my mini promotional tour for my single Halfway and my favorite dance convention Art of Movement which was last weekend. On top of all that I’m still a senior in high school so keeping up with that as well has been a challenge, but it’s been soooo worth it.

This past weekend was soooo amazing and I didn’t realize how much I needed it. So some backstory… For those of you who don’t know, I was a dancer before I became a singer. I’ve been dancing since I could walk in all styles, but when I was 11 I fell in love with Hip – Hop. I went to my first convention where I met my mentor and basically my uncle Mikey Trasoras. He choreographed a hip- hop solo for me and my first competition performing it, he came and surprised me and supported me since the beginning. Years later he helped me choose the path of singing which has been the best decision I’ve ever made. The downside was dance wasn’t the priority anymore.

Dance has always been a big part of my life… really it’s been my whole life up until 4 years ago. Mikey started the dance convention Art of Movement around the time I chose to do full time singing and it’s been very successful. It’s the best dance convention EVER (I might be a little bias lol). But seriously I’ve never felt more alive and inspired to dance more than I ever have at any other convention.

I went to their stop in Mobile, Alabama this year and had the best time. I realized I need to make more time for dance because for me, it’s so therapeutic. I never wanted the weekend to end!

Until next time…

Right now I’m on my mini promotional tour for my first single “Halfway” that dropped last Friday! It’s so surreal to be able to look up my name and see it on iTunes and Spotify!

Last Saturday I performed in Wisconsin for a lot of high schools in the area. The crowd was so loud and amazing, I felt so loved! Thank you to all the fans who came up to me and talked! I love getting to know you!

This week I’m in my hometown Albuquerque, New Mexico and will be doing shows here this weekend! On Saturday I will be performing with Season 15 winner of The Voice, Chevel Shepherd at 12:30 and on Sunday I’ll be doing a longer set around 11:45! I hope to see some familiar faces!

This is just the beginning!

XOXO,

Hello!

 I’m writing to you from a coffee shop on a very rainy day. I love days like these! I call it good songwriting weather, (or take a nap weather). Today it’s write a good blog post weather. 

Fun Fact: I LOVE coffee, but not just any coffee, I love espresso. One of my best friends McKinley has made me a coffee snob. Now I can’t stand filtered coffee, only espresso for me 🙂

School Update: I have 2 months 3 weeks 2 days 9 hours 29 minutes and 53 seconds till I graduate! As you can tell I’m ready to graduate, I’m literally counting down the seconds haha!

March is coming up and is going to be a big month for me. I’m flying to Wisconsin this week to perform for thousands of high school students. Then from there I’m flying to my hometown Albuquerque, New Mexico to do two huge shows out there! I love performing, it’s my favorite part of the job ;).
