Favorite quote: “if you trip in life, make it part of your dance”
Favorite Role: One of my favorite ballets to perform has been Serenade. The music and choreography are beautiful and dancing it feels magical from beginning to end. It’s easy to just get lost in the music and live in the moment. It is a ballet that will always have a special place in my heart.
Favorite Costume: One of my favorite costumes I got the chance to wear was the Enchantress costume for Beauty and the Beast. It was a long violet dress covered in silver flowers. The drape of it was so elegant and embodied the character in such a powerful way.
Fun Fact: I love to sew and upcycle clothing.
