I am an Austin native, and a 2020 graduate of the University of North Carolina School for the Arts high-school, boarding school program. I was trained in the Balanchine and Cecchetti methods at Dance Discovery first when I was 4 years old, and then when I was 14 the Vaganova technique at the Austin School of Classical Ballet. I then continued my dance training with the UNCSA ballet and contemporary programs. I am currently taking jazz classes here in Clemson, and when I go home on the breaks I keep up my ballet training with the Austin School of Classical Ballet to keep my options open. My ultimate goal is to get my doctorate in physical therapy/sports medicine work and one day work for international professional athletes.
