I've worn (and still wear) many hats: figure skater, environmentalist, dancer, arts administrator, teacher, and aspiring architect. I'm steadily combining these different interests into a career based on research, artistic practice, and work in the environment. My interests, curiosities, and jobs have taken me on a global journey full of surprises, and I've been lucky to work with amazing teams, teachers, and colleagues. Hoping to use my experiences, network, and toolbox to make the world a better place for all of us.

Gaga/People And Gaga/Dancers TeacherGaga Movement, Inc. Sep 2016 - PresentCertified teacher of Gaga and Ohad Naharin's choreography. Has taught open classes in Tel Aviv and Gaga/Dancers classes at Batsheva Dance Company, San Francisco Conservatory of Dance, and Yale University.Gaga is the movement language originally developed by Ohad Naharin and in constant research by Naharin and Gaga teachers worldwide."Gaga classes are based on a deep listening to and awareness of the scope of physical sensations. While class instructions are often imbued with rich imagery that stimulates the imagination, the layering of information builds into a multisensory, physically challenging experience. Gaga offers a workout that develops flexibility, stamina, agility, coordination, and efficiency of movement. The exploration of form, speed, and effort is accompanied by the playful investigation of soft and thick textures, delicacy and explosive power, and understatement and exaggeration."
