Years on the Outriders: 3
Education & Career: I studied dance, as well as danced professionally in Vancouver. I have since returned to Calgary to continue dancing professionally, teaching dance and I do social media management as well!
What inspired you to audition for The Outriders?
I was most inspired to audition for The Outriders by the work they do out in the community. I love how involved
and engaged the team is with the community and the fans, which was a driving factor for me joining the team!
What is your all time dance career highlight?
It’s so incredibly hard to pick one dance career highlight, I am so grateful for all the opportunities I have received. I
will; however, never forget my first time working on a film set in Vancouver!
Who is someone you admire, and why?
The person I most admire would be my grandma. She carried herself with the most kindness and the greatest
resilience. There was nothing that could stop her from seeing the silver linings, and I try to carry that myself.
What organization are you most excited to work with this season?
The visits to the Alberta Children’s Hospital.
If you were a superhero, what superpower would you have?
If I were a superhero I would have teleportation. I love to pack my schedule as full as I can and limiting on
commute time would allow me to be so much more productive in a day!
What advice would you give someone who wants to join the Outriders?
I would say the biggest advice I can give would be to find ways to showcase your personality and who you are
through your dancing! It’s so important to give a taste of who you are in your movement!
