Favorite quote: “Everything happens for a reason (most of the time).”

Favorite role: First Sylph in Johan Kobborgs La Sylphide. It was my favorite because I had the opportunity to work with Johan again in the same production I worked with him in 10 years ago!

Favorite costume: Western Symphony 4th movement red tutu, it was so cute and made it easy to embody the role.

Fun fact: I always wanted to be a gymnast.
