She has performed in six productions of CCD’s The Nutcracker, dancing the roles of Chinese Corps, Soldier, Angel, Sheep, Snowflake, and Flower. In 2021, Siska had the opportunity to perform in Studio Company’s Pivot, working with choreographers Dominic Walsh, Cameron Terry, Caili Quan, and Tilman O’Donnell. She has also performed in Studio Company’s anti-bullying ballets My Secret Bully and Crayon Box. She was able to perform in Dominic Walsh’s Cinderella & the Evil Stepmother in spring 2022. Siska has really enjoyed her years in Studio Company and has learned so much from her fellow dancers, the CCD staff, and the exquisite guest choreographers. In her spare time Siska loves to read, write, and bake treats.
