Artist Statement

I am fascinated with how the body moves in various forms of dance. My main precedence is to be a well-rounded dancer that can adapt to any technique. I am guided by the movement and the interpretation of it is interchangeable. The work I create is heavily influenced by the contemporary genre because of its open-ended skill set. I see contemporary as a broad atmosphere of vast possibilities of movement. I believe that there is no one way to make something but infinite ways to find your unique purpose. My movement evokes their own stories and the audience's perception of it is never-ending.
