Hi! I’m Veronica, I’m 22, and I love musicals. I love listening to musicals, seeing musicals, being in musicals, and writing about musicals. My number one favorite musical is probably Heathers the Musical (I saw it four times while it was running Off-Broadway) but I have a long list of musicals that can be considered favorites.
My love of musicals started young. My mother instilled her love of the arts in me. I grew up in the metro Detroit area where I didn’t have the kind of art exposure that I have now that I live in New Jersey and go to New York City frequently. I didn’t get to see any musicals that I didn’t have on DVD. Now I can see Broadway shows all the time.
I’m a recent graduate of The College of New Jersey, where I received my B.A. in Journalism and Professional Writing. My love of theatre only grew as I completed internships for the New Jersey Renaissance Faire and State Theatre New Jersey. Before that, I attended the Ocean County Performing Arts Academy for high school, where I majored in acting for four years.
When I’m not listening to or watching musicals, I love to listen to all sorts of other music too. I like to listen to pop, pop-punk, and indie rock, but I’m not picky with my tastes. I also love to hang out with my friends and boyfriend, walk my dog, and play video games.
