SPOTLIGHT PROFILE: Kelsey Favret




Kelsey Favret, age 20, was born in Indianapolis, Ind. but raised in Durham, NC. She started dancing at the age of three in a small family-run studio.  Since then she has been training in a variety of styles including tap, jazz, ballet, modern, lyrical musical theatre and hip-hop. Kelsey also graduated from an arts focused high school.

 Kelsey decided to attend College of Charleston for her undergraduate degree.  Kelsey declared communication as her major and dance as her minor. She wanted to keep dance in her life but also branch out and study other interests.

I love the aspects of Public Relations as a career, for I am a people person”, Kelsey stated.  Kelsey did not hesitate when dance was declared a major. She stated that she saw dance more than just a hobby, but also a possible future for her. As she transitioned from a dance minor to a major, she expresses that the curriculum does not get any easier.


 “Dance Kinesiology, for example, is a class I am currently enrolled in.  It has been one of the toughest classes I have taken here at the college!  All of the classes, whether they be technique classes or not, take a sufficient amount of outside work and attention to be successful in.”


Kelsey is a declared double major in both communication and dance. She hopes to “someday have a career that incorporates both dance and communication.”
