Johnny Hackett

Growing up in Owasso, Oklahoma, I began dancing at a very young age falling in love with the artform. After attending OSAI from 2013-2017, I was inspired to pursue dance professionally and was one of eleven men accepted into the Juilliard School class of 2021. While at Juilliard I served many leadership roles in the Residence Hall where I learned how to be a great liaison for the students and staff alike. Since graduating, I have fulfilled my dream of becoming a professional dancer and started my career in Lisbon, Portugal, and in the 2024/25 season I will be joining the Staatstheater Nurnberg Ballett. It would be a great honor to return to Quartz Mountain and help facilitate the magic Quartz offers.
