I’ve been teaching dance with over 24 years of experience in the industry, specializing in young people, ages 5+. I am an Educator, Instructor, and Choreographer. I will always protect our youth by dancing and training with integrity. I've seen what the dance world wants to make out of the next generation. I have always taken my role to contribute as a duty and honor, creatively giving nothing but integrity. Integrity in movement, hard work, discipline, the message behind the movement, and even with the costuming.
I believe it takes a village to raise a child. I want to help contribute to the best of my ability in sowing good seed into our future.

Exploring creative depthsWhen creating content I create a persona or character in my head that relates to the genre/movement. This helps me to create a feeling behind the piece. When I create the persona in my head, it helps to connect to the flow of the song giving an emotional attachment to the performance.
