AI can make things faster. Systems can make things easier. But nothing replaces human connection.

At the end of the day, we are in the people business.

Find the North Star of your business and keep coming back to it. Build something deeper than revenue. Build something that genuinely serves people.

Do it the hard way when the hard way means serving people better.

For us, there are kids counting on these events to leave feeling inspired, motivated, and different than when they arrived.

That mission has to stay bigger than the money.

Treat people right. Serve them well. Stay focused on the mission. The money will come.

After two years at Philadelphia Ballet, I have made the decision to move in a different direction! I’m very thankful for the opportunity to learn and build friendships through the ballet and I will continue to support all the dancers from the audience! 🎉

I’m excited to be moving into a full time position with Journey Dance Competition as the Head of Team Development. Thank you to Alli and Joel for believing in me, allowing me to be myself, and having me on your team! I can’t wait to for the season ahead!! 💜🪩

Journey National 2026 Film Contact Sheet + Scans 🎞️
.
.
.
After three long weeks, here are some film photos I took from my recent work trip. What I like about shooting film is that you never know what the photo will look like once you get the scans back and I love the subtle details that make film unique.

Thank you to @teamjrny and to eveyone that made this event possible and fun. Looking forward to seeing everyone once again!

Anybody want to know how I made this digital contact sheet? Let me know in the comments or DM!! If there is enough interest, I can make a tutorial!

it’s hard to put into words how it feels to wrap up the season with 3 incredible national events. i’m filled with so much pride, love and gratitude for all of the people who made this possible.

to all of the dancers, parents and studio directors who continue to choose Journey - thank you for putting your trust in us and bringing our events to life. getting to watch your dancers year after year is so special. we love you all so much!

to team Journey - your love for this company and dedication to creating such an unforgettable experience for everyone who walks through our doors blows me away every day. getting to watch you grow, laugh with you, and fine tune every detail of the event together is one of the most special things i’ve experienced. you are the heart of Journey and this wouldn’t be possible without every single one of you.

to @camilavaldii @silviaavaldiviezo @johnnyvaldiviezo - thank you for doing whatever it takes to make Journey what it is. you love Journey as much as (and sometimes more than) me and joel and we could never do this without you!

to my partner in everything @joelvaldi - we really did this!!! i am forever grateful for the amazing life we have built together. if this is what year 3 looks like, the world better get ready for everything else we have in store! i love you more than i can say!!!

2027 here we come!
