Ethan has had a busy last few months with several different talent competitions, school and work.  This past month, he had a chance to enter a corporate talent competition which gave him the opportunity to perform to a very large audience.  Additionally, Ethan has competed for the last years in the well-known Winchester, Virginia’s Apple Blossom’s Got Talent Contest.  The first year (2017), he competed at age 14 and made it through to the semi-finals.  In his second attempt in the spring of 2018, he won 3rd place and a cash prize.  This year, he’s in it to win it!  The final competition is on May 1 and the winner takes a cash prize of $2,000.
