" I believe in pink, I believe in kissing, kissing a lot, I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong, I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls, I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in Miracles."
What makes your world go round?
Family, Friends, Ballet, Dancing, Coffee, Music, My love (Jekyns), Yoga, Kitties, My students, Fashion, A good book, seasonal weather changes, A nice glass of wine, Long walks, Organizing, and Watching Chelsea Lately.
How long have you been involved in the arts? What type?
I have been involved in the arts since I was 6, so about 20 years. I started ballet in Santa Barbara at age 6.
What do you like most about your craft(s)?
I like that I have been able to have an outlet to turn to no matter what is happening in my life (good or bad) Ballet has also allowed me to find new things that I am good at year after year. Given me confidence and strength in many things.
Famous artist/historical figure/celebrity (or a few) you love and model yourself after

Santa Barbara, CA
What inspires you to create?
The right song
Ultimate life goal
I have many.. I would love to perform in many different ways (dancing, acting, and modeling) I would also love to be able to own my own studio one day offering ballet, pilates, yoga, and different dance styles.
What most surprised you most about THE THREAD 2013?
Everyone was so individual in what they brought to the floor. I loved that we were able to work together so well without ever meeting before. Such an open and accepting atmosphere. Completely talented!
