I am interested in music and generally most of the arts. This includes violin, painting, flute, writing, and pottery. There are numerous reasons why I value dance.

Finally, I was accepted into AAB and I will be attending it this summer which I am quite excited for. A goal of mine was to get into a summer intensive which I am thrilled to have accomplished.

Gigi has grown up at Dream Studio. When she was three, her tutus were enormous and her choreography was unpredictable. Now, she studies ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop and aerial silks. Veritas is special because it gives her a chance to be part of something bigger than herself, whether that be a dance, a feeling, or a message to the audience. Gigi is a visual artist at heart, and she plans to become a professional illustrator. Her dance training gives her a strong foundation for figure drawing, especially when she's trying to capture figures in motion
