At 11, she is one of the youngest of the many talented performers in this rising super pop group. Tessa is passionate about the arts but her first love is musical theatre and in honour of her upcoming performance as "Anna" in Frozen she has recently released a new cover of "True Love" from the broadway musical.

Girl Pow-R's goal is to empower young girls with the slogan "I Matter" to realize their dreams and to find their own value within themselves.
