Whenever I’m feeling challenged, I think about the tangible difference we’re making in the lives of the students we work with. On a daily basis, I see careers taking off first-hand, projects being made, and students getting into their dream schools, all of which demonstrate the power of the arts. Our amazing Board of Directors work so hard to fundraise and we have the most incredible faculty who truly give of their time and expertise, more than they are paid for.
Also, directors, choreographers and casting directors from all over the country approach me to help cast their productions. We continually match students with professional opportunities of all kinds, from regional productions, national tours, and even Broadway. We sharpen our students’ technical skills, therefore allowing them to compete at a higher level within the industry.
