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.
