"You're done for." Those were the only words I heard for at least 6 months. It was devastating. I was a national champion gymnast, I was going to go far in Gymnastics, quite possibly Olympic level, I could feel it. But, I never got to put that dream to the test.

My director was also the Musical Theatre director, and she convinced me to audition for Annie Jr., where I got my first role of Ms. Hannigan. I loved being on stage, and singing for people. I have auditioned for almost every play I could since that play, and I have excelled greatly, beating out many, many people for an eleven-part ensemble play at New England Music Camp, a very well-known, slightly prestigious summer camp.
