In our opening episode, we hear from American Ballet Theatre soloist Katie Williams. We talk about her background, training techniques, experiences as a professional, and more. 

After starting her early training with the Hawaii State Ballet, Katie moved with her family to Maryland where she began training at the Ballet Royale Academy. She joined the JKO School at ABT in 2005, and she was brought into the company as an apprentice in December 2007. She was promoted to the corps in June 2008 and to Soloist in September 2018.
