Hello! I am a contemporary dancer and emerging choreographer, newly based in NYC (for a bit over a year). I primarily make dance-theater works that explore existential questions and non-answers about the human experience. These pieces touch on common but simultaneously mysterious aspects of life: memory, humor, fear, dread, monotony, sex, and the (potential) myth of free-will. The movement varies from efficient and pedestrian to overly effortful and occasionally, appears like Dance Routine. These works are the result of the process of questioning and are my way of confronting things gently, and with rigor, starting from the body.
Last spring, I participated in Doug Varone's choreographic intensive and made a 12 minute work for a culminating show at the Manhattan Movement and Arts Center. Most recently, I've made two new works, one with live drumming accompaniment, as part of GibneyPRO training program, am performing a solo for Forza's Emerging Choreographer Series this Sunday,
