So excited to announce that I have accepted a contract to perform with Texas! The Outdoor Musical this summer! After a year of pause in the entertainment industry, I cannot wait to return to the stage and share the magic of live performance with audiences again! Stop by the Palo Duro Canyon this summer to see me dancing (and maybe even playing some banjo) in the second largest canyon in the United States.
