Where did you train?

Michelle Latimer Dance Academy.

What inspires you?

I’m inspired by the fact that there are no limits on what a person can create. Life is so precious and by constantly staying present I find myself being inspired by even the smallest things. Whether that is a song that brings me to a state judgement free exploration, or the way the wind moves the grass on my morning walks. I find inspiration in all thats around me and that is what fuels my drive to be forever learning and forever curious.

Describe yourself in three words.

Energetic. Expressive. Goofy.

Tell us a fun fact about you.

I love house music!

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

Being part of USC Kaufman is such a special opportunity. Being surrounded by brilliant professors who are deeply knowledgeable about dance and art as a whole is a true privilege. Learning from them, and from my incredible classmates who inspire me to stay curious every day feels unreal. USC Kaufman is not just a program; it’s a powerful force shaping artists for generations to come, and I’m beyond honored to be stepping into it and all the opportunities it offers.
