Tyler is currently a freshman at Montverde Academy in Windermere, FL. He is a passionate artist with a love for acting and singing, believes in the transformative power of imagination and the ability to impact people through his performances. His motivation as an artist stems from a desire to gain knowledge and wisdom, seeking truth in unconventional and extraordinary circumstances.

Through the Interlochen experience, he aspires to cultivate new connections and establish profound relationships, fostering an environment that fosters growth and creativity.
