"She is a smart, talented, hard working, and passionate actress who takes adjustments readily and understands the work she does from a broad perspective. She has taken advantage of some wonderful training opportunities and absorbs everything like a sponge. She is one of the hardest working people I have ever met. She is an amazingly bright, open, gracious, and beautiful girl and is extremely passionate about learning."

 

-Heather Provost, Tony Award Nominated Broadway Producer
