Artist Statement

What kind of artist am I?

To be frank, I don't have a definitive answer to that question.

In my journey to define my aesthetic and pinpoint my sources of inspiration, I've come to realize there isn't a single answer. The one consistent thread in my artistic practice is versatility. I am a dancer, teacher, and choreographer who confidently embraces diverse roles and dance genres. While my work may lack a singular style, it is always imbued with integrity, care, and unwavering passion.

As a performer, I am fueled by the exhilaration of being onstage. It is where I feel most alive, fully seen and heard without uttering a word.

As a choreographer, I strive to create distinct, meaningful expressions for both myself and the dancers I collaborate with. My approach is meticulous, almost mathematical, focusing on music, rhythm, spatial arrangement, and pathways. Each piece is crafted to highlight the strengths and aspirations of the dancers, ensuring no two works are alike.

As an educator, I prioritize the individual behind the dancer. I believe dance training enriches not only performance, but personal growth. As a feminist, I empower young girls and women to discover their voices through dance. I celebrate the diverse perspectives of my students, encouraging them to actively participate in their own learning journey.
