Performing at a private gala at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas was unforgettable. The energy of the audience, the stunning venue, and the seamless coordination of the event made it a career-defining moment.
I love corporate events because they combine professionalism with high-energy entertainment. There's something special about elevating a company’s milestone or celebration with a memorable performance.
Despite having no rhythm, dance experience, or knowledge of Michael Jackson beyond his passing, I begrudgingly gave in to my peers’ requests to perform ‘Billie Jean’ at my 8th-grade dance. What started as a reluctant gesture ignited something extraordinary. The crowd’s reaction was electric, and within weeks, I was touring the state—and later the country—as a professional tribute artist.
In high school, I trained in Jazz, Hip-Hop, Ballet, and Modern dance under one of the nation’s top programs, later studying Theatre Arts at Stetson University with a focus on acting, directing, and stage design. At 19, I left Stetson to pursue entertainment full-time, building a state-of-the-art recording studio to elevate my craft.
From 2019 to 2022, I worked as a producer, engineer, music video director, and session vocalist. In 2024, I relaunched my Michael Jackson Tribute Show, celebrating its 10th anniversary with a nationwide tour known for its world-class production and breathtaking precision.
All the greats!

I’m happy to perform outdoors, provided there’s a flat, level surface and a reliable power supply close to the performance area. For the best experience, shade or a covered area is recommended to protect both the performer and equipment.
