KAYLA DAVION
Kayla Davion is a 2017 graduate of Ball State University’s renowned BFA Musical Theatre program, where she now heads the Alumni Ambassador Program. She is originally from the South Suburbs of Chicago, IL.
Kayla chose to create the Alumni Ambassador program after the breakout of riots and black lives matter protests that were happening within the pandemic that took place in 2020. She wanted to do her part for all BIPOC artists to educate and mentor them so that they would be able to combat white supremacy and fine tune their own instruments. Her goal is to give BIPOC artists a chance to have a “seat at the table” of every room they walk into confidently feeling that they will not be defined merely by their color.
She sends love to God, Mike, Mom, Ball State University, Nicolosi & Co, and Untitled Entertainment. “Lead with Love!” @Kayladavion
