about me

headshot.jpg

As a dancer and choreographer I am inspired by the human experience. I have always had a fascination with the human psychique. Our movement reflects how we think, what we feel, who we are. I dance to show myself and I choreograph to reflect the world I see. I am moved by the knowledge, perspective and translation of personal history that movement carries. To me, dance is a vehicle to build community. To be moved and inspired together. To feel happiness, misery, grief, courage and resilience through the art of movement.
