In casting her work, Jennifer looked for dancers who were willing to “wear their individuality on their sleeve.” She wanted those willing to “take the same type of risk that I was willing to take as a choreographer.” Stepping outside of her comfort zone, Jennifer decided to not predetermine the outcome of her piece at the outset. She wanted to “let go of being in control of every step of the process, and…trust the process to shape the final product.” She also challenged herself to make choreography that was movement rather than meaning based. - Quote from MFA experience article
