I am an experienced dancer, copyrighted choreographer, and compassionate dance educator. I have trained and performed with the Asheville Ballet and studied at the Joffrey Midwest under John Magnus. I attended Creighton University at 14 years old under invitation by director Lisa Carter. I have also trained with incredible teachers such as Raquelle Davis, Dres Reid, and Alex Wong. In the DMV area, I have performed with the Manassas Ballet Theatre, Dissonance Dance Theatre, Dancin’ Unlimited Jazz Dance Company, and Fairfax Ballet Company.

I am a certified life coach and certified as a dance studio owner through IAP Career College. I am working on my personal trainer certification. I am passionate about dance and physical health. It is an honor to get to help people with their journey in dance and I take that responsibility seriously. While the teachers I had as a students were incredible and did the best they could, a lot of their methods and ways were old “traditional” methods that don’t address mental/emotional health or injury prevention. I had many injuries as a student and developed an overly self critical perfectionist mentality that took a toll on my mental health. It’s time for new methods and positive changes in how dance is taught and how dancers are treated. I make a promise to provide everyone with a healthier safer way to learn dance and improve their physical health.
