Born and raised in Northern California, I studied various forms of dance, choreography and performance. I have earned a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre & Dance, a California Teaching Credential in Physical Education, and a Master's Degree of Education in Global Teaching. I have previous experience teaching hip-hop, jazz, ballet, contemporary and fitness at local gyms, fitness/dance studios, and community colleges. Since 2006, I have had the honor of teaching dance and directing the dance company, "FUSION," at Franklin High School in Elk Grove Unified School District. Now at 36, I continue to thrive as a dance professional in the community and work-hard to inspire others to dance, dance, dance.
