Growing up in Georgia, Lainey began dancing with the Atlanta Ballet School where, at age 10, she was chosen by John McFall, director of Atlanta Ballet, to be featured in his world premier of Prisma alongside four of his company’s dancers. This performance led to her being featured in Dance magazine. Through continued training, she joined the Atlanta Ballet Company at age 15 where she had the great opportunity to tour London with John McFall’s Peter Pan and perform throughout the United States such classics as Balachine’s Allegro Brillante as well as Stanton Welch’s Garden of Mirth and Madame Butterfly.In 2004, she joined Texas Batter Theater under Ben Stevenson where over her 11 year tenure she enjoyed performing corps de ballet, soloist and principal roles such as Myrtha in Giselle, Sylvia Pas de Deux, and Theme and Variation, as well as represented Texas Ballet Theater at the grand opening of the Winspear Opera House performing Flames of Paris.
​
It was at Texas Ballet Theater that she met and danced alongside Chung-Lin and Enrica Tseng.

She’s enjoyed performing in amazing works like Carmina Burana, Steven Mill’s Hamlet, Septime Weber’s Carmen, Michael Pink’s Romeo & Juliet and Dracula, many world renowned works by Ben Stevenson, such as Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake, Coppélia, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Cleopatra, Peer Gynt, and Four Last Songs and many Balanchine classics including Serenade, Symphony in C, Rubies, Concerto Barocco, and Apollo, among others.
