“I remember my dreams when I was a junior soloist. 'Oh, I hope I don't end here,' I thought. 'I want to do the ballerina in 'Scotch Symphony.' I don't want to be the little Scotch girl.' And I actually went beyond my wildest dreams. I worked with Balanchine. I had ballets choreographed for me.”

“I am just so thankful that my mom was a fantastic mom. She wasn't a stage mother she didn't push me. She was happy if I was happy. We are so different. I was very shy my mom did all the talking. She was my strength. She never expected that I would be this ballerina. ”
