Newly promoted Soloist Daniel Baker takes some time from his lunch break to tell us about his promotion and what he’s looking forward to the most this Season. Daniel joined Miami City Ballet as a Company Apprentice in 2006 and was promoted to Soloist this year. While still holding on to his Australian roots, Daniel has found a home at MCB. Look for him on the cover of this Season’s mailer, in MCB ads and as the Bugle Boy in most Company B performances (among other roles).
Daniel told us what he’s looking forward to performing. What are you looking forward to seeing?
Meet the voices behind MCB Blog and our Facebook Fan Pages: Ailency Martinez, Kris Kramer and Caroline Murray.
You may recognize Kris Kramer from the MCB stage – she was a dancer with the Company for five years. Recently joining the administrative staff as Development Associate, Kris is charged with recruiting new members for MCB’s Upper Room (the Ballet’s young professionals group) and hosting videos for our Web site, YouTube channel and Facebook Fan Pages (Miami City Ballet Fan Page, MCB School Fan Page). Check out her video intro.:
Caroline Murray is Miami City Ballet’s Marketing Manager. Although she was never a dancer (okay, so her mother shoved her feet into ballet slippers when she was five, but that was short-lived), she loves dance and the arts in general. Caroline has been with MCB for more than eight years – she’s family — and she makes it her business to spread the word about MCB.
Ailency Martinez is a Ballet newbie, starting as our Marketing, Social Networking and PR Assistant extraordinaire last month. She’s always armed with her video camera and iPhone, and is ready to bring you the dish as it happens!
