Improvisations at La Calera, Oaxaca de Juarez, Mexico, 2023

I had the pleasure of teaching at Vail Valley Academy of Dance in Edwards, Colorado from 2013-2023. During my time at VVAD, I developed what is now a six level contemporary dance program as well as the VVAD Repertory Company. I contributed numerous choreographic works to Vail Youth Ballet Company and Vail Valley Academy of Dance students and built bridges between studio and community through collaborations with organizations such as TedX Youth Vail and Colorado's Art in Public Places. I have studied extensively as a teacher; training in diverse pedagogies ranging from classical ballet education with School of American Ballet to post-modern dance and intersectional forms of psychosomatic arts.

I am so proud of my students. Who have been accepted into some of the most competitive conservatories, college and summer dance programs, and companies in the United States; including but not limited to Lines Ballet San Fransisco, Hubbard Street, American Ballet Theater, Joffrey, Colorado Ballet, Los Angelas Ballet, NYU Tisch, Cincinnati Ballet, Butler University, Bolshoi, and Nutmeg Conservatory. I am no longer teaching youth dance full time. However, I am available as a guest teaching artist and choreographer.
