Born in Illinois but raised in Indiana, Eliza has had big dreams of performing on stage since a very young age. Their passion for performing arts was ignited when their mother introduced them to the musical 'WICKED' in kindergarten. In third grade, Eliza had the opportunity to witness the musical live, and after falling under the witch’s spell, they were forever changed for good!

​

In sixth grade, Eliza took their first step onto the stage by participating in a high school production of "High School Musical Jr." This experience solidified their desire to pursue a career in theatre. Throughout high school, Eliza dedicated themselves to honing their skills and exploring a wide range of productions. Eliza's high school theatre journey included notable performances in productions such as "She Kills Monsters," "The Wizard of Oz," "And The World Goes 'Round," "Beauty and the Beast," "1984," "Scrooge," "Zombie Prom," "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," "Clue: On Stage," and "Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella." Each role allowed Eliza to showcase their versatility and commitment to their craft. With a strong foundation in high school theatre, Eliza is determined to continue their artistic journey outside of school. 

​

A year after graduation, Eliza booked their first professional show in Uptown’s production of Hairspray. Following that show, they would book their first understudying role with Music Theater Works' production of Annie!

As Eliza continues to audition and book various projects, they are excited to grow and learn more as a performer and an artist!
