Quotes

“I think discipline of a craft stays with you, especially when you start off so young. I was six when I first enrolled in ballet and did it until I was 14. So I think the structure of that stays with you.”

“I’m an introvert to this day. I just think I developed a way to navigate these social settings where I find enjoyment and I think it’s always good to know new people and get to network, for the lack of a better word.”

“To rely on one another and instead of doing it your way by yourself, it always plays out better to do things with other people.”

“Life just doesn’t happen exactly the way that you want it to happen. But that’s okay. And I think as long as you stay focused on what your goals are there is going to be a way to them. It just might be slightly different than what you had in your head to begin with.”

“I think the whole concept of regret for me, is about learning from everything. I think it’s important to not make regrets feel like an ideology. Or something that you end up holding onto. Because you learn from them, and they make you who you are and have brought you to where you are today.”

“The Miss World Dominican Republic was such an unplanned and unexpected adventure. I view it is as one more role I’ve played on stage or screen.”
