ARTISTIC STATEMENT
I combine highly technical modern movement with my natural quirky, athletic, and sharp movement style in order to create a unique movement aesthetic. I do not have one set style of work; my pieces include abstract, semi-narrative, and narrative works. I work with bold dancers who are able to fully commit to any situation and who are willing to break the rules of the dance world. My dancers understand that a minuscule detail such as a flick of a finger holds equal importance to the large movement phrases. Every piece I choreograph is an adventurous process, full of play, exploration, and improvisation, which results in an equally adventurous product. This world of dance I work in is atypical, physically taxing, and mesmerizing.
