ABOUT ME​

Hope was raised in Birmingham, Michigan, and began attending live entertainment events with her family before she could walk. This catapulted into a love for the arts, attending Broadway shows in Detroit at the Fisher, theatre summer camps, and joining crew her freshman year of high school for her first musical Bye Bye Birdie. She was hooked the moment she put on a headset and joined “headset nation.”
