Mission Statement

I am an artist therefore, I find creative solutions to spread joy, support equity within the arts and build community so that I may live out the fullest embodiment of ME and guide others to do the same!
I seek to share my expertise in dance making, story telling, and teaching artistry in order to foster future generations of change-makers. I advocate for artists rights by creating platforms to support the voices and stories of others while building bridges across cultures through the shared universal language of movement.
