Q&A

What has your favorite role been?
My favorite classical role I have ever performed is Carabosse in The Sleeping Beauty. I got to exercise more artistic liberty and it helped me to find my individuality as an artist.

What’s the most memorable day you’ve ever had?
The most memorable day I’ve ever had was probably when the Eagles won the Super Bowl in 2018. My family and I are huge Eagles fans, and we were absolutely ecstatic. I really felt like I was out there winning the Lombardi Trophy.

If I weren’t a ballet dancer, I would be…
Either a competitive swimmer or a lawyer.
