Twelve shows of Nutcracker, this ballet gave to me…
Twelve weeks of rehearsing
Eleven hour days of dancing
Ten snowflakes backstage sprinting
Nine iterations of casting
Eight flowers a waltzing
Seven straight days of French Twists
Six double stepovers on the left
Five hours of sleep (a night)
Four double show days
Three (ish) panels of marley at the Rialto
Two temperamental rat cars
…and an excessively bright snow wig

This post may be overdue, but at least my assignments never were…
Graduating from @texaschristianuniversity is a simultaneous ending and beginning. I’ve always been one to struggle with change, yet am welcoming it this time because these people and this university have so brilliantly prepared me for it. I’m so fortunate to be walking away with not just a BFA, but also lifelong friends and mentors, life-changing experiences, and the comfort in knowing that our circle only gets bigger 💜
Final bow at TCU - “We Did This To/For Ourselves” Capstone Performance
To my cohort and the remarkable people of the SCCD, I can’t thank you enough for the love and encouragement you poured into us as we tackled this beast of a piece. You all have filled my soul, and I have nothing but gratitude for you and this insanely wonderful place we’ve gotten to call home.
@chris_landreneau we really did do it to ourselves with this one, huh?
On location or in the studio, let me turn your dancing into art you can hang on the walls of your home✨
