competition and school, how do you manage your time?
I am used to dancing every night at JJDA, so I always do my homework as soon as I get home from school. We don't have any more competitions until July so that helps.
What is
Freckleface Strawberry about?
It's about a girl with red hair and freckles that gets bullied. The story is about learning to love who you are.
How does
dance figure into the production?
I think it helps tell the story in a way that people will listen.
How long
have you been dancing?
I started dancing when I was four and when I was nine I started dancing on Company at JJDA.
What's
your greatest performing experience so far?
Two years ago when our Grand Line went to Nationals and won the Battle of the Stars and became a National Champion.
What is
the next big thing you would like to accomplish after this?
Broadway!!!
