A native of Nanaimo, British Columbia, Jillian trained at the Kirkwood Academy of the Performing Arts and Canada’s National Ballet School. She joined The National Ballet of Canada in 1999 and was promoted to Principal Dancer in 2011.
We talk to Jillian all the way from Australia about her career, break out roles, stage fright, what COVID has been like for the dancers of National Ballet of Canada, and about hope for the future.
