Q&A

What has been your favorite role?
Tweedle Dum in Kenneth Tindall’s Alice in Wonderland because it was such a fun character to play. You get to connect with the audience, dance freely and play with the character in such a unique way.

What’s your perfect day?
It would be a day when I was performing something on stage or just spending time with close friends and family. I also love to try new things and push myself to places I haven’t been before. Those are always some of the most exciting days.

If I weren’t a ballet dancer, I would be…
I might be in school to become an architect or a priest. I have many interests, but ballet is definitely number one right now.
