It is so hard to choose one, but these are ones that I mainly think about due to the amazing scores and richness in the choreography.
Stanton Welch's Romeo and Juliet
Akram Kahn's Giselle
Liam Scarlett's Swan Lake
A Defining Moment
My proudest moment on stage was getting to do Trumpet in Stanton's The Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra. It was the first performance that I was apart of when I first came to Houston Ballet Academy in the summer a couple of years ago. I remember thinking how cool and amazing that ballet is. So, getting to do it with the Company on the Wortham stage was a full circle moment.
