As a dancer, I am passionate about bringing the choreographer's creative vision to life while bringing who I am to the work. My training in a wide variety of dance genres has given me the space to connect with a larger community of dancers, artists, and audiences physically and emotionally. Physical and technical growth has also inspired me to grow artistically, letting peers and viewers into the experience being told through movement.

 

Dance has brought me closer to finding my most genuine self, guided by my values of honesty, integrity, empathy, and care. I hope to connect with audiences deeply in a way that is true to myself. Additionally, a goal of mine is to find a deeper sense of emotional intelligence through my dancing, developing the technical elements into advanced artistic ones. I aim to share these values while working and collaborating with others through interdisciplinary ideas, explorations, and discoveries that are focused, goal-oriented, and innovative. This remains my intent when choreographing on other artists. My goal is to give dancers room to develop the choreography I outline into something that speaks to them, allowing them to dance it with passion, comfort, confidence, and creativity. The environment and work should not feel forced but organic, enabling the dancers and viewers to feel stimulated positively.
