AYLA ALLEN '18
Name: Ayla Allen
Year: 2018
Major: Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Hometown: West Hills, CA
Dance Background: I started dancing at the age of four with ballet, tap, and jazz at a competition studio in Lincoln, Nebraska. At ten I started training in contemporary, lyrical, hip hop, and pointe. When I moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting (I've been in two commercials!), the hardest part was being in limbo without my dance studio. I eventually started training at Los Angeles Ballet Academy with the RAD curriculum, where I passed Intermediate, Advanced 1, and Advanced 2 with Distinction. I trained with Alvin Ailey for a summer and dance is such an important part of my life. I am so excited to be in Princeton's one and only PUB!!
Favorite Ballet or Role: Esmeralda
