🎓💖 BBFC Co-Founder Spotlight 💖🎓

Please join us in celebrating the amazing Sophia Chambliss, co-founder of Brown Ballerinas for Change on her graduation from the University of Virginia!

Sophia earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing, graduated debt free, served as captain of UVA’s dance team, continued to choreograph competition routines at CVDA, and worked throughout her college journey.

She’s already been hired as a nurse in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at VCU Children’s Hospital, where her heart for healing and passion for youth will continue to shine.

Sophia embodies everything BBFC stands for…excellence, dedication, and grace both on and off the stage. We couldn’t be prouder of her impact and legacy.

Drop a 💐 in the comments to celebrate this beautiful Brown ballerina turned nurse and changemaker!
