Favorite quote:  “When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But if you listen, you may learn something new.”  The Dalai Lama

Favorite role:It’s hard to pick only one Favorite Role but I think it will be Romeo from Romeo and Juliet and my favorites roles I have performed are Puck from Midsummer Night’s Dream and Allegro the Lead couple from Western Symphony by George Balanchine.

Favorite costume:It was a beautiful costume at Ballet Pensacola that I really liked when I danced “Precious stones” from The Sleeping Beauty. The jacket was very comfortable and fits perfectly on my body and it was very delicate and shiny.

Fun Fact: I love photography… I really enjoy taking pictures and making videos, especially of dancers. I love spending time playing around with editing.
