Morgan James knew she wanted to be a singer from about the 8th grade, but she had no idea where her journey to fulfilling her dreams of performing Broadway would take her. She spoke with me about her parents' reaction to her ambitions, what it was like to study at one of the best music schools in the world and how professional singers are actually a lot like elite athletes.
