Yesterday concluded my first season with @collectivescdance

Thank you @laceymarlynn and the whole company for taking a chance on me. I came in expecting to learn, perform, and grow, and I got all of that, plus some of the most special friendships, memories, and inside jokes along the way.

I love being part of the Charleston dance community. People show up for each other here, and being involved has reminded me why performing matters and why we have to keep making art.

Thanks for an incredible first season. Ready for the next one!!!
