My years of experience give me an in-depth practical and theoretical knowledge of the dance world and the performing arts industry, as a whole. I grew up and trained in the United States, but have lived and worked in the UK for over twenty years now, so my knowledge of the industry and the educational system in this country is thorough. I was born in the UK and hold dual citizenship. I have danced all my life and always knew this was to be my path. I believe it is vital to become an educated dancer and to know the history, the background and current industry issues in order to be a well-rounded artist. I have worked as a teacher, mentor and choreographer - working in both educational and professional industry settings. I am versed in ballet, jazz, contemporary, commercial, salsa, flamenco and Bollywood. I am a trained PBT teacher, as well as a qualified acupuncturist.
