Dear Diary, I can say that I have come a long way and it's just my second semester. My family at home and my Onda family have grown and have always found a way to support each other.

Shoutout to Fall '21 and all of the friends and family I've made in this troupe.

I hope you all enjoy the amazing show that everyone has worked so hard to make possible. And afterwards, I'll no longer be wearing my Onda jacket as a member, but a brand-spanking new alum <3shoutout to the Class of 2023!!!

To my dancers, thank you so much for bringing our vision to life; it's been insane and gratifying to watch unfold, truly.
