Dance

I have been dancing since age 3, and have been teaching and choreographing for over 20 years. Although trained in many genres, I now work almost exclusively in contemporary movement.

I am the Artistic Director of Branches Contemporary Dance, a company emphasizing dancemaking that gives physical shape to the things we all feel: our company collaboratively explores what it means to be human through movement.

Via live performance, photo, and film, we practice embodying emotions in new ways, taking up space, and using our creative voices to share our truths with others. Branches also aims to incorporate audience education into the work we product to help make contemporary dance more accessible, understandable, and enjoyable for all viewers. Because dance is for everybody and art changes us all for the better.
