Where did you train?

I grew up training at my mom’s studio, Tiffany’s Performing Arts Studio in Republic, MO.

What inspires you?

Music inspires me to create art. I love collaborating and working with different artists. Dance is truly the thing I am most passionate about, and I am ready to continue my deep dive of movement exploration at Kaufman.

Describe yourself in three words.

Patient. Resilient. Humorous.

Tell us a fun fact about you.

I want to be a pirate. One of my dreams is to sail from the U.S. to Asia. I want to live on the water. The sea calls me. I also want to backpack all over the globe. I love being out in nature. Van life doesn’t sound too shabby. Honestly, I could go on and on. I have a lot of fun facts and want to accomplish much while I am here on earth.

What does it mean to be a part of USC Kaufman?

To me, it means new beginnings. I am beyond blessed to have this experience. I am so humbled to be surrounded by the best teachers and students. I am truly excited to see where this leads me in life.
