Artist Statement
I am an Artist who specializes in dance, choreography, and filmmaking. In my own work, I strive to use art as a way to share and speak about social issues that surround us every day. There are many issues that people are sometimes too afraid to talk about. Some of my recent work includes pieces on drug abuse, domestic abuse, and social unity. My goal is to take that topic, create a piece to share, and then hopefully get people talking. My work may be shared through live performance or through dance film, either way, I aim to reach large audiences. I find satisfaction in the way art can change the way people think and converse about difficult topics.
In addition to being a creator, I am also a performer. I find freedom in the way dance allows you to express yourself. I specialize in almost every style, and I plan to continue to develop my skills in areas I am familiar with as well as ones I am not so familiar with. I believe that being well-rounded is something that will get an artist far in this industry, which is why I will continue to find new ways to expand my knowledge of dance.
