I started dancing and acting when i was three yrs old or should i say my mother forced me into it only joking its probably the best thing she has ever done for me so thanks mum, anyway where was I? When i was 16 yrs old i studied drama at a college in Leeds for 2 yrs which was absolutely brill ! At 18 i didn't really know what to do with myself or what i wanted to be so i decided to apply for Camp America. I think going to America on my own has probably been the bravest thing i've done in my life so far it was completely daunting and scary as i had to plan 3 months worth of lesson plans and at 18 i didn't have a clue but i guess you just get on with it when your put on the spot. Whilst i was out there i put on 3 shows for the kids which i think they really enjoyed and the kids that participated were really amazing. After camp finished i travelled round America for 15 days which was even more amazing than Camp itself. At 19 i moved to Guildford to study singing which is something i have always been passionate about and i wanted to try something new. I spent 3 yrs at ACM firstly on the higher diploma then 2 yrs on a degree i can't say i learnt that much while i was there but it was a good experience and i made some really great friends. I moved to london 2 yrs ago and haven't looked back since. I'm currently in a 4 piece vocal harmony group called "The Scarletz" and it has to be one of the best things that has ever happened to me, i have so much fun with the girls writing music, socializing and gossiping. We have just recently finished our demo with some amazing well known producers who we love to bits and will be showcasing come march time hopefully. But until then check us out and keep up to date with what the band are up to www.myspace.com/thescarletzofficial . I look forward to making lots of friends and hearing from you very soon lots of love katiya xxx
