When did you first learn about Aerial ❔My son and I did baby circus together at Echo Theater. When he was 5, the coach said- you need your own aerial class. I agreed.

How long have you been training❔ Ten years but not consistently.

What is the best part❔The people. I haven’t met a circus person I haven’t liked yet.

What is the hardest part ❔Not being able to do aerial when I’m recovering from an injury.

How did you hear about night flight ❔From another classmate when I was taking a class at another aerial studio. They thought I would benefit from the teaching style at Night Flight.

What is your aerial dream act ❔I have an act in mind where I’m a peacock that drags their heavy baggage to the trapeze, gets on the the plane (the trapeze), and when I disembark, my baggage is very light.

Anything else about yourself ❔I don’t think so.
