Most memorable moment…
|
I have two: The first time I performed on stage with a professional company was in Chautauqua with North Carolina Dance Theatre. There was nothing like taking those bows with the rest of the company and the audience clapped for what felt like the best 10 minutes of my life! But also, I'll never forget the moment Gen asked me to join the company in the summer of 2008, it was all I could do not to jump and scream for joy!

When I am not rehearsing or performing:
|
I am usually working at Bare Escentuals, but enjoy yoga, cooking, reading, and am working on convincing my boyfriend to get me a puppy!
