How many years have you been dancing?

How many years have you danced at SDA? I have been dancing for 16 years and I have danced with SDA for all of them.

What is your favorite non-dance activity?

Hanging out with my friends and family

What are your plans after graduation? Attend LSU and major in Nutrition

What is your favorite style of dance? Why?

Ballet. It’s always been my favorite because of the technique and precision but also because of the freedom and joy it allows me to feel.

What is your fondest dance memory?

Some of my fondest dance memories are getting to perform with my favorite people and spending hours upon hours at the studio.

What is an accomplishment that you are proud of?

Being a principal dancer for the past four years

What are you looking forward to?

I am looking forward to continue to dance in BR and possibly taking dance classes with Alayna Millican :)

What do you think you will miss?

I am definitely going to miss the sweet atmosphere that SDA created for me for the past 16 years, and all of the friends I’ve made along the way.

What advice do you have for younger dancers?

I would say to not let the hard work stop outside the four walls of the studio. You have to put in extra work if you want to progress.

What is your favorite snack?

My favorite snack is watermelon!
