How do you pump yourself up for auditions?
“I'm a huge fan of pre-audition dance parties, alone in my bedroom or just anywhere really. I also have a preset Playlist for auditions I always listen to, which are filled with jams to remind myself why I wake up and go to auditions in the first place! I also warmup my voice and stretch.”
