Hi! My name is Cheryl. I graduated from The College of New Jersey with a B.A. degree in Speech and Theatre Education. Theatre has always been a major part of my life. From performing in many plays and musicals to becoming a successful director of multiple high school shows.

As the Broadway Experience Coordinator, I am thrilled to be able to bring the Broadway experience to students. Many who may not otherwise have the opportunity to see a Broadway show.

The reward, for me, in this position, is seeing and hearing about the magic that is Broadway from the students. The workshops and educational tours are an integral part of the education that is live theatre and the performing arts.

A trip to NYC and seeing a show is something that students will always remember!

What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

The best piece of advice that I have given is always kind, honest and compassionate.

What sports team do you root for the most and why?

My favorite sports team is the NY Yankees. Their legacy spans over 100 years. Also, I was born in The Bronx.

What is your dream travel destination?

My dream travel destination is London, England. I want to see as many shows as possible on the West End.

What is your favorite musical instrument and why?

My favorite musical instrument has always been the drums. Percussion has a driving beat that I love. I was always the person that enjoyed the drum solos at a rock concert.
