What ringtone do you have on your mobile phone at the moment? Beautiful Girl by Sean Kingston… reminds me of Dubai… awww!

My proudest accomplishment to date is: Passing my degree, my driving test and becoming a Rockette!
What is the best thing about being a Rockettes Dancer? You could be dancing to 60,000 football fans at Hampden or at the rugby in Murrayfield… on a beach in Dubai or Italy… or at Glasgow Airport departure lounge (seriously). Also being taught to such a high standard and dancing alongside extremely talented and like-minded dancers.
What would you like to be doing in five years? Hopefully I will no longer be a poor student with a banger for a car, I should be a fully qualified psychologist and still dancing with the Rockettes of course!
