Lydia is a High School Sophomore from Columbus, Ohio. She is a Thespian and is very heavily involved in Theatre in school and in the Columbus Community. She started dancing at age 3, and that evolved into Musical Theatre, which has become her passion. She also performs with her High School's Symphonic Choir, as well as the Capriccio Youth Choir outside of school. While her main area of focus is Musical Theatre, she is also learning Classical and Pop repertoire. She hopes to continue her training in the next two years and then plans on applying to BFA programs for Musical Theatre or Vocal Performance.
