About Dylan!  
My interest in performing began for me at a very young age. I am very fortunate to have found a career in which I can live the dream of making a living singing and performing, and still spend most of my time raising my children.
I got my BFA in Acting/Directing from Syracuse University. After graduation, I spent 5 years in NYC pursuing a professional acting career. While there, I found a teaching position at a popular play program that was looking for actors.
The love of singing for and teaching very young children encouraged me to pursue another avenue in my career. Three years later, I earned my Masters in Teaching from Montclair State University. The program emphasized Early Childhood Education and I earned my NJ Certification for Teaching, Grades N – 8.
During one of the classes I was teaching, someone asked me to do a birthday party for their child – and the rest is history! I began doing children's parties, developing them along the way into my own personal style. So, years later, my parties are very different than they were and still so much fun to do. I taught myself how to play guitar, which also prompted me to write and record some of my music as featured on my very first CD, “Sing Along with Miss Dylan.”
I live in Manalapan, New Jersey with my wonderful husband and two children. Currently, I am teaching music and “Mommy & Me” classes at Ivy League Preschool. Other schools where I teach music include Lakeview Child Center in Manalapan, Hop to It in Englishtown, Goddard School in Manalapan and Kiddie Academy in Freehold. I also teach Music and Movement at Black Bear
Lake Day Camp during the summer.
When I started to miss theatre, I decided to create an acting program for children. Monmouth County Theatre for Kids is my latest venture. Classes are for children ages 4 – 12 and vary according to interest in the community. In March of 2010, for example, I directed eight children between 9 and 12 years old in a production of “A Bagful of Fables” at the Center Playhouse. They worked all year long on it and it was fantastic. We can’t wait to plan our show for this year!
