Summary

I began dancing at the age of 4, starting with Scottish Highland Dance. At the age of 5 I started ballet and loved it. I am now 12 and continue to appreciate the amazing opportunities I have to learn the art of dance. I attend classes in many different styles including jazz, tap, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, musical theater, acrobatics, modern, and contemporary. I love perform and make people happy. I focus and work hard in classes and rehearsals. I try to encourage and help fellow dancer in classes and in performance company. I also enjoy art and reading.
