Choreography: Choreographed a piece for the 25th Anniversary of Monte Carlo's National Theatre, The Grimaldi Forum.
What inspired me to start dancing: My two sisters who already did ballet forced me into being a party boy in their school performance of The Nutcracker. From there I immediately knew this was what I wanted to do.
Most inspirational teacher: Roland Vogel because he taught with passion and you could see he had a hunger for sharing his knowledge.
