Gabby is a sixteen year old junior at the Orange County High School of the Arts and has been a student there since eighth grade. She dances in their commercial dance conservatory, where she studies various types of dance and is able to learn from a range of different teachers, while balancing her regular education.

Gabby has been dancing since the age of three and is on her thirteenth year. She is in several performing groups, where she enjoys performing around Garden Grove. She has also traveled and performed in New York's Central Park with a group called Music on the Move from her local studio. By dancing, she maintains physical fitness and sustains a healthy life style.

Last summer, Gabby traveled to Europe with a student ambassador program called People to People. As a student ambassador from America, she was able to study in England, France, Italy, Monaco, and Vatican City. During this trip she saw all the fantastic sights and even had the opportunity to meet a Member of Parliament. She has learned many skills with this exciting experience including leadership, responsibility, and organization. Her favorite experience was repelling off a 100 ft. wall. With this experience, Gabby overcame her fear of heights and found that taking risks is taking a step towards leadership because you have to trust both yourself and others. Most importantly, Gabby learned about her family history and where her ancestors came from and how America came to be what it is today.

Gabby has also now signed with her first agent and in this last year she landed her first commercial. Her character was the daughter of a regular family going to Little Caesar's Pizza and buying a pizza with their great sale. Gabby was thrilled to have this experience and hopes to be able to do it again in the near future.

With the new skills she has learned, Gabby hopes to be a role model for others and spread her platform: Physical Fitness for Adolescents. By learning healthy routines at an early age, it can help contribute to becoming a healthier adult later in life. She is proud and determined to serve her title to the best of her ability.
