I’m very excited to report that I placed second over all in the 20 and over division at the National Finals of the Showstopper talent competition. I performed a Song and Dance Routine to the classic Kander and Ebb song “New York, New York”. Receiving a Platinum award level, I won the 20 and over Song and Dance category. The Song and Dance category requires competitors to combine vocal and dance technique into one seamless performance.

This was my third year to compete in the Showstopper competition. I received Platinum awards for the last three years, but this is my first year to “place” in competitive 20 and over division. Performing for the judges puts much more pressure on me than performing for an audience. I know the judges are looking for good dance technique and strong vocal quality. I also have to make sure that I connect with them during the performance. Competing in the Showstopper competitions has helped me to tremendously improve my overall performance quality. I’m thrilled to have improved my scores every year and continued my development as a performer.
