Beauty and the Beast

It's surreal to think that three decades have passed since Beauty and the Beast debuted on Broadway, marking the start of my journey with my first job. Spending two years there and then moving with the show to Los Angeles, where I joined most of the original lead cast at the Shubert Theatre for another year, was truly transformative. Every moment was precious, and I hold those memories dear. Even a year later, seeing it play on screen at a Disney store stirred emotions within me. My giant rose tattoo, etched onto my neck, serves as a perpetual reminder of the show's profound impact on my life. It's a tribute shared with Kelrik and intertwined with memories from my time at Montessori school, all of which hold a cherished place in my heart.
