DANCE

When I'm not scanning through my Twitter feed for the latest news, I am a professional dancer and choreographer.

I specialize in contemporary/modern dance, and have training/have choreographed and performed in a plethora of styles (including jazz, ballet, tap, hip hop, salsa, flash mobs, et cetera).

I have worked and trained with some of the best in the industry, including Carla Catherwood, Laura Furtado, Vanessa Young, Geneen Georgiev, Ashley Sweett, Lindsay Ritter, Jojo Zolina, Anandha Ray, Janet L. Castillo and many more.
