We went there a lot. Growing up, I went there a lot on vacation. And then my dad was like, I just love it here. I love the weather. I love the vibe. I love the people. So we were like, okay. So we moved there for about maybe six, eight months.
And my little sister was probably like, oh my gosh, maybe like... I want to say like nine weeks old. It was kind of a crazy decision, but we moved. And then I went to school in Orlando. Again, not performing at this point. And then we heard this thing on the radio, me and my dad, and it was like, come to this... This workshop where you can dance, sing, and act. My dad was like, that's cool.
