The All American Talent Awards has the distinct honor of being one of the pioneers in the industry as we proudly launch our 30th Anniversary Season. As a performer/instructor my vision was to design a program that would showcase developing talent bringing together students, families, instructors and celebrity professionals in an inspirational atmosphere of themes, costumes, choreography, performance and the spirit of achievement. 

The All American Talent Awards began with a Winter Open National in Harrisburg, PA, which soon became a Thanksgiving Tradition for families from all over the country for nearly three decades. As life long friendships were made, together as the All American Talent Award family, we all have nurtured the novices, applauded advancement and appreciated and respected the outstanding for their inspiration and motivation for us all to continue to strive and achieve. 

We are proud to have earned an outstanding reputation for professionalism, impeccable standards of fairness and honesty, a friendly and respectful staff complete with the incomparable talents shared by our distinguished panel of judges. Over the years, we’ve watched not only our contestants grow and develop with outstanding performances and career advancements but so many of our studio directors, instructors and judges as well.

There has been unforgettable show stopping moments and well deserved success stories. Over the years, to have watched the development of our contestants such as Rasta Thomas, Michelle Wiles, the Canterna sisters, Jordan & Janelle Viscomi… to name a few, has been both an honor and pleasure. I am proud to have created the All American Talent Awards that has had such a positive effect on so many lives. We have developed and grown together with cherished memories that will last a lifetime… with the Best yet to Come!
