GET TO KNOW
WILL 

When did you start dancing, and why?

I started dancing when I was 6, because I was always at the ballet studio for my sister’s classes. I wanted to do ballet to help prepare for other sports but stuck with ballet. 

What inspires you to be a professional dancer?

My first teacher, Carlos Agudelo, inspired me from a young age. Now as a professional I am constantly inspired by the dedication of my coworkers and all the friends I have in the ballet world.

Why did you choose BSA, and for some both BSA-SBSA?

BSA is a great place to work daily. The whole company works together like a team which keeps everyone striving to be their best. That type of environment is what draws me to BSA.
