Karina Alonso-Gyure

Then: Fossil Ridge High School, Class of 2014

Now: Fossil Ridge High School, Dance Teacher and Sun Dancers Director

"During my student teaching semester in college, I had the opportunity to learn from another Ridge alumni, Lindsey Harris, who is now the Dance Director at Timber Creek High School. Around that same time, my old director was looking for a new assistant for the following school year and she asked me if I would be interested. I never thought in a million years that I would get to help lead the team that gave me my passion for dance – what an honor! As strange as it was to walk onto my old stomping grounds again, it was an easy decision and transition for me. I love that I get to pour into the community that first poured into me. I assisted for 5 years and now get to lead my team as their head director entering my 6th year... I've never looked back."
