I created my unique brand bringing theatrical classics to a broader audience while adding my modern signature. Brilliant New Yorkers have opened me their doors and hearts, such as Jason Guberman and David E.R. Dangoor from the American Sephardi Federation, my manager Robert R. Blume, Angel Orensanz from The Angel Orensanz Foundation, and many more. To be yourself is priceless, and New York allows me to achieve that. It's only the begging of a new decade where I'll continue to dedicate all my best to my artistic endeavors to benefit the New Yorkers. It's a long way from the suburbs of Paris filled with dreams to perform someday in New York, to miraculously land in the Mayor of New York's words and congratulations. I have a special thought for my beloved father, Marcel Serero, and my grandparents Lily and Raphael Serero. I strongly admire and respect Mayor Bill de Blasio, and now I'm bound with him for eternity.
