While 2017 was a year of transitions: Moving from GA to TN to London, UK, being a full time employee to a student, and joining a brand new company; 2018 offered me something brand new: ADVENTURE! I traveled to 7 different countries, learned how to say 'thank you' in 5 different languages. (German, Finnish, Portuguese, … Continue reading A Year In Review

Finito
EDGE Dance Company 2017-2018 has officially finished. I have completed the performance requirements for the MA. All that is left to do is write my dissertation and figure out what I would like to do with the rest of my life. I am in shock that all of the rehearsing, injuries (nothing major), and touring … Continue reading Finito
Let the Touring BEGIN!
So I know a lot of you are probably thinking or wondering where in the world I've been these last 2 months. Yes, I am still in London getting my MA. No, I did not forget that I had a blog. And yes, I have been very busy! I wanted to give everyone an update, … Continue reading Let the Touring BEGIN!
My, how things have changed…
ONE YEAR ago today I auditioned in New York for the London Contemporary Dance School MA program. I applied for the EDge company and DAP program.

To the Holidays
Well, it's the end of Term 1! I made it! I have worked with 3 choreographers, rehearsed for countless hours, been assessed in 2 different technique classes (Ballet and Floor), and used too many tubes of IcyHot. (Okay maybe the IcyHot thing was a stretch, but the other parts are completely true!) I've only been … Continue reading To the Holidays

And I do not say this so that you will show me pity, I say this to point out my growth … Continue reading A New Tradition

A few weeks ago we had something called, "Half Term, now I was not familiar with the phrase and frankly I am still … Continue reading It’s Been Too Long
Getting Settled
It’s official! I have been in London for ONE MONTH (Saturday, 9 September to Monday, 9 October)! Can you believe that? (I definitely can’t!) It has been an interesting adventure, to say the least. Finding housing was NO JOKE! But don’t worry I have a place to live. I am currently a resident of the … Continue reading Getting Settled

Day One
With all of the sacrifices, late nights, and recent stress, I'm so fortunate to have been afforded this opportunity. But let's take a moment to talk about finding housing in London. Do you know how hard it is to find affordable housing in the middle of London that doesn't have you sharing a toilet with … Continue reading Day One
