My journey as an opera singer did not begin when I left home to study voice at NYU. It began the day I was born and will continue until the day I die. For me, this journey is a winding and bumpy road; for others, the path might be shorter, with fewer undulations. All of us, however, have a journey we must take.

Heartbridge is a technology that brings the sense of touch to livestream. It’s an app for iOS that allows you to feel the actual heartbeat of a performer in real time, while they are performing.

Creating is the movement of my life. To cease creating is to cease being and during those first weeks in quarantine, I felt the wheel of creation begin to slow. 

If the Performing Arts community is going to emerge from the pandemic strong and vibrant, this is the kind of innovation it needs.
