Watch as Andres Zuniga talks about his early dance inspirations and joining New York City Ballet. With both parents in the medical field, Andres Zuniga saw the same path for himself until a performance of Balanchine works and encounter with his most revered muse veered his aspirations towards the NYCB stage.
