BIO

Relatively new to the theatre world, Amanda dove right in by auditioning for her first show with her teenage daughter in 2015. That show introduced her to the soon-to-be founding members of On Pitch Performing Arts Center (OPPA!), a non-profit theatre in Layton, Utah. Amanda costumed the first 15 productions at OPPA! and manages their costume shop. Her favorite role to play was Sister Mary Amnesia in Nunsense. Amanda enjoys creating beautiful costumes and occasionally singing and acting on stage.
