Musical Theatre Performer based in New York City

So excited to meet you, thank you for visiting my website!
I'm a performer based in New York City, originally from Madrid, Spain. I graduated from the Professional Musical Theatre Conservatory at Nyfa and im currently an auditioning actor plus an advertising and public relations student
About Me.
Hey there! Thanks so much for stopping by! Originally from Madrid, I'm now living out my musical theatre dreams in the vibrant streets of NYC. From singing in my school choir to being captivated by "Beauty and the Beast" at just four years old, I knew I belonged on stage.
​
After completing NYFA's musical theatre conservatory, I've been balancing auditions while pursuing a bachelor's in advertising and PR online. NYC has become my playground for making those childhood dreams a reality. Recently, I had the thrill of a lifetime playing Maria in "West Side Story" at NCC Summer Theatre—an experience that still gives me goosebumps!
​
You might've also seen me as Tzeitel in "Fiddler on the Roof" or stepping in as Sophie's understudy in "Mamma Mia!" This year has been a whirlwind with performances at iconic spots like 54 Below and Don't Tell Mama—each stage adding a new chapter to my story of passion and perseverance.
