Born and raised in the greater Vancouver area, Sierra has been singing, dancing and acting since the age of six. Sierra’s love of musical theatre began when RCMT cast her as Marta in the Sound of Music with performances at the Massey Theatre. She continued to perform in several musicals which have included Gypsy at the Arts Club Theatre and Singing in the Rain at Theatre Under The Stars, where she received the Grace MacDonald award for Most Promising Dancer.
Sierra also has a great passion for dance, with an extra special love of tap. She has been in intensive dance training for several years at Danzmode Productions, with additional training at Harbour Dance and the Vancouver Tap Dance Society. Her dance training includes ballet, pointe, lyrical, modern, jazz, hip hop and tap. Sierra is considered a triple threat with her years of training in voice lessons, dance, and acting classes. She is also a member of Perry Ehrlich’s Showstoppers Vocal Performance Group.
Over the years Sierra has received many awards and scholarships from festivals across Canada and the USA. A highlight in 2010 was winning the Intermediate Stage title at the BC Provincials in Duncan BC. A turning point for Sierra was the time she spent in Los Angeles at the Triple Threat Next Step Convention in the summer of 2011. She worked with amazing choreographers, but most importantly learned a great deal about the industry and what’s involved in pursuing her career after graduation.
Sierra’s reputation from directors and choreographers that have worked with her over the years is that she gives 100% of herself to every project. She has an amazing work ethic, which comes from a deep love within, as she truly loves to perform.
In Sierra’s downtime, she enjoys her time with friends and family playing Pictionary & Charades.
Sierra is very excited to see what the future has in store for her!
