Remember students and parents, it takes years of discipline and work to achieve your goals. We are lifetime students, always learning and growing as Artists and performers.

It has been a long time since I've posted here but I want to say hi to everyone. I just thought it would be nice to share what's been going on and start a conversation. I am not working at The Y anymore as a disclaimer. Just sharing.

My daughter Jessica Lilja is new owner of Allegro Ballet in Wexford Pa. Since June 2022. She has done a tremendous job with the students already.

I helped her during Summer Dance as a teacher, and on her Nutcracker costumes. I sub regularly irregularly.

I have also been selling wedding dresses and work Wardrobe for Theaters. Its a lot & good so I have some ideas..Thoughts to be posted.
