Meet the contestants: Britney Cheskiewicz

Britney, 16, not only wants to be a voice for kids during the NEPA Sings competition, but she has hopes to one day become a family court lawyer to help kids who need it.

“It’s really rewarding (to be part of NEPA Sings),” she said. “That’s why I auditioned in the first place. It’s all for the kids!”

Britney has been interested in performing from an early age and currently serves her community as Miss Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s Outstanding Teen, and is a member of the Wyoming Area Drama Club.

“It would mean the world to me (to win),” she said. “I’m looking for something to jump start my career and maybe this is it.”
