What is your current age?
I’m double digits now. I just turned 10!
Are you currently signed with an agency?
Zuri Model and Talent in LA
Do you consider yourself a model, actor,
dancer, singer, or all of the above?
I really consider myself an actor, singer and
dancer mainly, but I have tried out model-
ing, and it is really fun!
In what dance methods have you trained?
I take Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical, Hip Hop,
and Acro. I am also on the Dance Competi-
tion Team. During dance, I go to the dance
studio and we do wall splits, and that really
helps get your legs stretched. Then we’ll do
20 releves that help get your feet in motion,
and then we’ll do some push ups and may-
be some arm twists to get us warmed up for
all the types of dance that I take. Dancing is
great exercise and a really great thing to do
working as a team!
What are some of the projects you have
worked on?
I have worked on a couple of scary short
films called “The Clown” and “First Night’.
I also worked on a longer film called “My
Claire”, and I was the granddaughter of the
main character. It was a really heart warm-
ing story...kind of sad too, you know...like
bittersweet...just like things sometimes hap-
pen in real life. Oh, and Master Chef Junior!
That was a big project, and I definitely had a
lot of fun with that. That’s definitely one to
remember and put in the books.
What has been your favorite acting job?
A lot of theater productions have been some
of my favorite acting opportunities. I was
Little Cosette in Les Miserables and Molly in
Annie. I’ve played a lot of other roles since
then, but those were a couple of my first live
stage roles, and it was so much fun. I think
that Little Cosette was one of my favorites. It
was neat because I got to work with a lot of
adults who were really great performers. It
was really fun to be interviewed for newspa-
pers and things like that also. I love theater
and performing on the stage. Then there’s
dancing and definitely going to all of the
competitions and winning the awards with
my special dance friends. I love the ones
where your team wins things like getting a
video of your studio, and they give your stu-
dio owner $75 or $100 and post your team on
FaceBook. Of course, being on FOX televi-
sion for Master Chef Junior was pretty cool,
but I wouldn’t consider that acting because I
was just being myself, and I love cooking and
hanging out with new friends.
What three words best describe you?
Well, I consider myself bubbly and adven-
turous, and I think I’m an inspiring kind
of person because I think inspiring sort of
runs in my family. I get inspired by my mom
sometimes when she does different crafts or
baking. I also get inspired by my friends with
lots of things, and also by my dad. He makes
these really cool dishes, and I get inspired by
him and then make my own little twists with
my own recipes. And, I really get inspired by
nice things that I see people do, and it makes
