Hi everyone!

I am happy to announce that I have been given the opportunity to perform the role of Gherardo in 'Gianni Schicchi' at the Berlin Opera Academy this coming August. I am excited to experience Europe for the first time while learning from such amazing talent. I was fortunate enough to receive a scholarship for the program, but it is not enough to cover the costs involved with the process.

With your help, these funds will help me cover:

With the Berlin Opera program, I will be participating in a month-long process that involves opera coachings, movement classes, staging rehearsals, individual coachings, and German classes. This immersive experience will culminate with our performance of Giacomo Puccini's 'Gianni Schicchi' and auditions for agents in the Berlin area. In addition to playing and studying the role of Gherardo, I am grateful to have been given the chance to coach the role of Rinuccio.

In addition to this campaign, I will also be putting on a benefit recital in July as a means to continue raising funds for the trip. The recital will be available in-person and online.

Thank you all for taking the time to read, share, and engage with my story in any way you can. I will be holding a benefit recital in July to further raise funds and engage with any who are interested. Stay tuned for more updates!
