I have been dancing for 10 years and choreographing for 4 years. My expertise is in tap, hip hop, and contemporary but I have also trained in ballet, jazz, and musical theatre. I have been in the competition world for 8 years winning various awards both regionally and nationally. While growing up in Maine, I have danced with various dance companies allowing me to be exposed to a wide range of dance techniques and styles.

I just recently graduated from the University of Maine at Augusta with a degree in Applied Science focusing in Human Biology. While teaching, I strive to create a comfortable environment for all dancers so that they can build confidence and be successful. I enjoy educating dancers on what I like to call "dance science" instructing dancers on the mechanics of dance. A fun fact about me is that I am a photographer and a choreographer for high school cheerleaders.
