"I’m so sad my time here is coming to an end because I feel like I just started to figure it out. If I could go back to freshman year and give myself advice I would have so much to say. But honestly I think I got the most important part exactly right. To my best friends, I can’t thank you all enough for going through these past 4 years with me. I love you all to the moon and back 🌔💫 "

"I can’t believe the last four years went by so fast. Butler has become like a home to me and my friends like a family. I’ve been pushed to be the best version of myself both as a person and as a dancer. I’m so thankful for the people (friends, family, and faculty) that have helped me along the way. While I’m sad that this time is coming to an end I’m also excited for the next chapter of my life and will take the experiences I’ve had here with me. Â

"Closing this chapter feels so surreal. I’m so grateful for the growth I’ve experienced—not just as a dancer, but as a person—and for every challenge and opportunity that pushed me to become stronger, more resilient, and more passionate about this art form. This journey has given me memories I will carry with me forever. Most of all, I’m endlessly thankful for the friends and peers who have supported, inspired, and shared the last four years with me. I can’t wait to continue to watch each and every one of you shine. I love you all more than words can say 🤍"

To my senior class, thank you for making the environment so uplifting and warm. You all are so special and I am proud of everything you have accomplished. To the precious friends I’ve made, thank you for being there through all the highs and lows. I love you dearly. Butler Ballet has taught me so many lessons and I am blessed beyond measure to have had this journey.🤍"
