You can find her performances in the desolate museums on her YouTube page . Please also visit her webpage to learn more.

Despite what the title infers - there is nothing amateur about it. Production value is high, and the acting takes you out of the auditorium and into your own magical sing-song world. Needless to say - a very proud brother right here." • Vadim Fomenok - "show-ballet putti" • Peter Lewicki - "Theatre Interior" • Ethan Ou - "untitled image" • Viktor Theo - "untitled image"
