Who am I?

Who am I? Where do I come from? Well I am me nothing greater or less than that. I am an artist, a dancer, a performer, a student, a son, a brother, an uncle, a cousin, an icon, a legend. I am Keeton Alan Phillips. I am me!

I grew up in Evansville, Indiana, which is the 3rd largest city in Indiana. I have 3 older brothers, in descending order, Lee, Steven, and Jeff. My family lost Lee when I was in 1st grade from a gun shot. I didn't know him that well, but I feel his spirit protecting me. My mom and dad are divorced and I live with my mom, well did. Now I am living in the Dwight floor 901.

When I applied to Columbia I declared my major as Musical theatre. Then I decided to double major with Dance, but the dance center told me to be a BFA in dancemaking and Musical theatre it would be challenging so I had to decided what I wanted to do. I ultimately decided to go ahead with dancemaking because I want to choreograph show choirs and musical theatre.

I was in theatre since I was 8 years old and then when I got into junior high and high school I was really into show choir. I auditioned for my show choir every year except Junior year, which i found out I would have made it, but I joined for my senior year. We are the Castle Knight Sensations and we competed all over Indiana. This year they are coming to Chicago and I can't wait to see them again. Dance is something I am so passionate about that I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I don't necessarily love writing, but through the Bridge it's something I can tolerate. I enjoy writing more when it is a topic I am passionate about and not a topic I am forced to write about. With this class I am hoping to explore ideas that I have in a deeper context not just by writing, but through discussion and and visuals. I am also really excited for our photo project because I am now a Photography Minor.
