Thank you!

Arissa Delgadillo: Hi! My name is Arissa Delgadillo and I am a student here at California State University Long Beach. I have the privilege of taking part in Ballet 102 which has called on us to learn about an inspirational ballerina of our choice. Therefore, I have chosen none other than Latina Prima Ballerina Evelyn Cisneros. In this blog, I will be dedicating information and content to her story and life as a Hispanic pioneer.
