Hi! My name is Natalie, and I am a sophomore at the University of Michigan studying Business Administration. I am a theater kid at heart, and am so excited to be contributing to BroadwayWorld. Growing up, I was very involved in my middle and high school's theater programs, taking every opportunity I could to be in productions. Now as a college student, I am moving away from acting and focusing more on arts leadership! I am an Associate Producer for Rude Mechanicals, U of M's largest student-run dramatic theatre organization, as well as an intern at Broadway Grand Rapids, which brings the best of touring Broadway to Grand Rapids, Michigan! I am so excited to be embarking on this chapter of my theater journey, and can't wait to share pieces of my college life in my blog posts!
