All right, so it took place in Philadelphia.
And first, just a little backstory, a little information about me as a kid and a teenager.
I was a baton twirler.
and a juggler and just an all around musical theater nerd.

I wasn't.

I didn't want to compete.

I was 24 and I was fresh out of college, figuring out what I wanted to do with my life.
