I absolutely love what I do, and I want to dance for as long as I can and feel good about what I’m putting out there on the stage. But my goal has always been to be a principal dancer with ABT. Before I knew that there’d never been a black woman that was always my goal. I wanted to dance “Odette-Odile” and Kitri in “Don Quixote” and Aurora in “Sleeping Beauty.” So that’s still my goal. But knowing that it’s never been done before I think makes me fight even harder.
