Elena has been dancing and performing since she was three years old, and it's still such an important part of her life. She feels blessed to prioritize it alongside her full-time work as a Registered Nurse — or, as Hannah Montana put it, she gets the best of both worlds. She and her husband celebrate three years of marriage this month and are stoked on life and grateful to have things they're passionate about. This is her second show with Pickleville On Tour, and she wants to keep coming back forever!
What’s your favorite go-to summertime activity when not doing a show?
Anything in a lake or river! I also love camping or a good game night!
What's one of your most cherished summer memories?
Marrying my best friend! Yay for August 19th!
You've just been made captain of your own Prairie Pirate ship. what's the first rule you post?
No scabies or scurvy allowed. Gotta minimize that spread of infection, ya know.
Tell us about a funny or embarrassing stage-related experience you’ve had.
During the Christmas show last year, there was a scene where myself and a couple others had to do a dance number on hoverboards. We also happened to be dressed as mummies. Due to fog machines and slippery floors, we had to end up ditching the hoverboards in the middle of the number and ended up just walking around like zombies for the majority of the song. I’d never laughed so much - shoutout Morgan and Jaycee miss y’all.
You have 30 seconds to impress a room full of strangers. What do you do?

One of my most favorite foods is pickles. I also cannot whistle:(
