Hey readers! My name is Alana Randall and I’m so happy to be apart of this fabulous blogging experience!

My blogs will focus on the struggles of this industry and my advice on how you can rise above that as a performer. Before we get into that, let me tell you a little bit about who I am and how I got to where I am now.
