Thank you Lin-Manuel, Walt Disney and Beyoncé for the inspiration. This journey has been a long and winding yellow brick road, but I thank my fans, friends and family for their never ending support. Thank you to my amazing team, my mother, brother, father, stepfather Corey, Pat Carthel for opening my eyes to a world that was not black and white, my agents at UTA, my manager Steven Grossman, my best friends (Chester, Vonzell, Blair, Sheena and Ashley)... Without you all I would never have found my home in YouTube, and there truly is no place like home. I would like to dedicate each and every performance of Straight Outta Oz to my sweet Grandmother “Ethel” and my good friend Jill #2650, may you both watch proudly from Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”
