“Between my first and second ship, I had to graduate college. That was 8 months where I was off the market. Could not take any jobs, and I think that being forced into a situation like that helped me see the value of going out and being on these contracts, but also the value in being home with your friends and your family and finding little odds and ends jobs, finding a dance studio that keeps you dancing or whatever until the next thing comes along.” 32:05
