  • Hometown: Newburgh, IN
  • Dancing Since: Age 12
  • Seasons with Charlotte Ballet II: 1
  • Favorite movie: “Inception”

  • I dance because: “When I perform I get a feeling that I cannot find anywhere else. It’s a feeling of being at peace, but still excited and a little nervous, like you know you’re right where you’re supposed to be. I dance because I love portraying emotions or characters with nothing other than movement. There is almost no truer way to evoke emotion than when you’re being so vulnerable in the moment.
  • Favorite thing to do on a day off: I love walking around exploring the city and thrifting with friends!
