First Broadway show you ever saw? I've only seen two, Wicked back in 2005, and West Side Story in 2010.

When did you first get involved in theatre? I first got involved in theater in my freshman year of high school in 2004.

When did you first start performing with SRO? My first show with SRO was HONK! back in 2004.

If you had to pick which show would you say has been your favorite you've done with SRO? Hmm... Aside from the cabarets, I’d have to say Assassins or All Shook Up.

If you could go back in time and catch any Broadway show, what would it be? It'd be awesome to see the 2009 Revival of Hair with Gavin Creel.

Some favorite modern musicals: Spring Awakening, American Idiot, In the Heights, Legally Blonde, Tarzan & Wicked

Some favorite classic musicals: Hair, Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd & West Side Story

Favorite showtune(s) of all time: Strangers Like Me from Tarzan, anything from Spring Awakening, The World Will Know from Newsies, various songs from Ragtime, Rent, American Idiot and almost anything by Stephen Sondheim.

First stage kiss: I think it was Annie Fabiano in All Shook Up. mmmmmmm Something you're REALLY bad at: I think I'm really bad at saying 'no' to people. I'm also awful at saving money haha

Most visited websites: Well, aside from stupid Facebook, it'd probably be YouTube, Wikipedia and Amazon.com

Last book you read: If scripts are considered 'books' then Little Women... If I have to pick a regular book, it'd be Little Women. But I fell asleep after page 7, so... fail. Must see TV shows: FRIENDS is my favorite TV show period. Family Guy and Big Bang Theory are a close 2nd. Other than that, The Soup, Jersey Shore and Chelsea Lately are definitely awesome.

Last good movie you saw? I'm a movie buff. Any movie I watch is going to be good. So there’s soooo many

Some films you consider classics: Hmmmm... James Bond films, Star Wars films, Indiana Jones films, King Kong, Lord of the Rings, old Universal horror films and a crapload more.

Do you have Pre-show rituals or warm-ups? I'm usually 5-10 minutes late to call, so I’m running around like a crazy person with butterflies in my stomach. Aside from that, I fix my costume about a billion times and say my first few lines before goin’ on stage

Pop culture guilty pleasure: E! News. I love me some obnoxious pop culture news. What song is the most played on your iPod? Probably 21 Guns from American Idiot the Musical...

Three things you can't live without: 1) My friends 2) Sadly, my cell 3) TACO BELL & Thirsty Owl mmm

What are some of your dream roles? I don't really have a dream role. I think the only part that I’d like to be is Tarzan, but I wouldn't consider that a dream role... What are some shows you'd love to see SRO to do? I'd like to see SRO do bare: a Pop Opera, Bonnie & Clyde, Legally Blonde, Matilda, Urinetown and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.
