Hometown: Portland, Texas

Joined NBT: 2025

Training: I have been dancing for just three and a half years. I started ballet at 21 with the Corpus Christi Ballet under the direction of Cristina Munro. I spent a year there and then did two years of a traineeship with the Oklahoma City Ballet under the direction of Racheal.

Previous Affiliations: Trainee with the Oklahoma City Ballet.

Honors/Awards: Full scholarship for both years as a trainee in Oklahoma City, and full scholarship to ABT’s collegiate summer intensive.

Favorite Roles: Smee in Jordan Morris’ Peter Pan, Corps de ballet in Ryan Jolicouer-Nye’s Carmina Burana, and the Poet in the Les Sylphides Pas de deux.

A Career Highlight: During my first year as a trainee at Oklahoma City Ballet, I was called up to be in the main company’s production of Ryan Jolicouer-Nye’s Carmina Burana. After being called in to understudy several positions, I ultimately found myself cast as the only Trainee in this main stage production.

Outside Interests - I own a photography business specializing in dance photography for the Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Oklahoma City areas.
