About Me

About Me

I'm an experienced contemporary dancer interested in choreography development where different fields merge. I am passionate about collaborating on shared projects with other artists and profesionals in which we open a space of mutual learning. All aspects of the creative process fascinate me, and I am especially curious of the creative challenges posed by multi-disciplinary projects.  Above all, I seek honest people and bold projects.

Even though my experience has primarily been as a dancer, I have also had the opportunity to work as a dance teacher, stage lighting technician, stage manager, and dance film festival manager.  In my role as a dance teacher, I have worked with kids, teenagers, and adults in private dance studios, government art programs, primary schools, and performing arts colleges. I also have a continued interest in working with vulnerable communities, kids, and the elderly.
