I believe in the human potential to move and be moved, to see and be seen, to feel and be felt.



I am a New York-based dancer and choreographer, and I am obsessed with movement. My current practice is focused around a personal exploration of the body’s innate wisdom, as well as the ongoing discovery of how dance can be used as a vehicle for creating shared, felt experiences.

In 2018 I received a BA in Contemporary Dance and a minor in Psychology from Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School, where I had the honor of performing in works by Michelle Boulé, Molly Poerstel, Stacy Spence, Nami Yamamoto, and Reggie Wilson. I’ve performed with the Matthew Westerby Company, was featured in the 2020 film premiere titled “Shaky Ground” by the Vanessa Long Dance Company, and am currently an apprentice dancer with the TK Dance Lab. My choreographic work has been presented at Triskelion Arts, Green Space, Open Performance at Movement Research, and The New School.
