I'm convinced Sondheim wrote "Sooner Or Later" just to let me live my gin-sipping lounge singer fantasies 🎤💃🏻🎹

This one is for all the kids who learned to live free after years of living as "different" ❤️

Here's "Not My Father's Son" from Kinky Boots.

For the Mama's Next Big Act finale, we all had to put our own spin on the jazz standard "All of Me" Given all my open call trauma, it's only natural I turned it into a (manic) audition 🎹🎶😅

The moment they said my name, I turned into a blubbery mess. But the joy I felt was worth a few tears 🥹❤️

Oh. And did I mention that I was selected to sing the national anthem at commencement? 😌💅🏻

Just practicing for the last final of my masters degree 🎓

As a singer with little interest in leading a choir, I never thought conducting would be something I'd learn during my grad school career. I still have a lot to learn, but I'm proud of the progress 🎉🧑🏻‍🎓
