Kristen is currently a 10th grader. She has loved singing ever since she was three years old. She also loves reading books and writing. From the moment she could speak, she had an interest in art and music, then in 9th grade she found out about theatre. She thinks theatre is fun because it gives her a chance to play characters that do things she normally wouldn't.
