Q&A

What has your favorite role been?
My favorite role to perform was Kitri from Don Quixote. This one I hold dear to my heart since it’s one of the first Pas de Deux that I had the opportunity to perform. The energy is always high and exciting. I can really bring out my own personality into the role, which makes it even more fun to perform.

Do you have a favorite vacation spot?
My favorite vacation spot will forever be the Dominican Republic. Even though I grew up there until the age of 10, I still love to go back on summer breaks and explore new beaches and go to places that I didn’t get to visit while living there.

What’s the food you usually refuse to share?
Pastelitos also known as Empanadas.
