I'm a Teaching Artist, Dance Educator, and Curriculum Coordinator.

I work with organizations such as:

Seattle Theater Group, Seattle Children's Theater, Pacific Northwest Ballet, Arts Impact,

and Seattle Parks & Recreation.

I live in the worlds of student choreography

and personal practice.

With my students I have a chance to experience the creative process through fresh eyes.
