on growing up...

 

Growing up means taking charge of every aspect of yourself. 

on a personal note...
  1. Who do you play? Describe your character.

    ​I play Willow, the youngest of The Lost Ones. Having dealt with a background of sexual abuse, she has run away from home and found a family in Pan and the others.

  2. What is your favorite part of this process?

    Getting to spend my days in Neverland :)

  3. What is the hardest part of this process for you?

    ​I'm surrounded by so many strong and brilliant artists- it can get a bit intimidating at times.

  4. Why is this show important to you?

    I've really begun finding my voice as an artist, and this process has been such a welcoming and open environment for developing it.

  5. What is one thing you have learned from making this show?

    There is no one thing I can really pinpoint, as this show is constantly opening my eyes.

  6. If you could stay any age forever, what age would you stay and why?

    I'm in my early twenties, and I would be perfectly fine staying like this :)

  7. Was there ever a time when you were afraid for your life?

    I've had a pretty tumultuous family life, and there have been a handful of times where I've had to run away for a bit in order to stay safe. 

  8. What was your favorite bedtime story and why?

    Baba Yaga. Super creepy. Super awesome.

  9. Why did you want to be a part of SOTM?

    I've always loved Peter Pan, plus I love the work that relEASE creates.

  10. If you feel you have privilege, have you ever used it in your favor? If so, for what?

    ​Yes, I know I am a privileged person. I haven't purposely exploited that, but I am aware that some things have come to me for the way I look.
