Her workday typically begins at 7 a.m. and runs until 8:30 p.m. when she settles into some free time reconnecting with friends and family before retiring for the night. She spends about five hours a day in ballet practice, which includes Pilates and stretching, and about four hours on schoolwork, which involves virtual classes, meetings with teachers and homework.
