Performing Arts Director and EducatorA driven and forward-thinker with over 15 years of nonprofit management experience and education in various strategic roles. I have demonstrated expertise in arts education, senior management, event planning, fundraising/ budget creation, and strategic problem solving alongside Co-Executive Leadership. As a Nonprofit leader, I ran an Indian Arts Organization in Chicago. Since moving to the Bay Area, I lend my expertise to various people in the performing arts industry as a grants manager, booking agent, arts educator, organizational consultant, and artist. As an artist, I am reintegrating traditional dance into a modern art form while inspiring the next generation of dancers. I want my passion for social causes to influence art as a public servant, to inspire awareness, inclusion, change.
