Elevating Arts through Movement & Community

I’m a choreographer, educator, and producer based in Baltimore, originally from Jacksonville, Florida. I trained and worked as a professional dancer, and somewhere along the way I realized the part I loved most wasn’t the stage. It was the room: the moment someone who “isn’t a dancer” tries something new and realizes they belong there.
 

That’s why I call the people in my classes movers. Dance can come with a lot of hidden rules about who’s trained enough, and I’d rather build spaces where trust comes first and technique second.

​

That belief grew into Beer and Ballet, which started as a bi-monthly brewery class and became a multi-state program. It also led to B&B Collective, where I get to make and present work with Baltimore artists. These days I teach at the university level, offer arts consulting, and work with a small number of private clients, all from the same belief: movement is for everybody, and community is built one welcoming room at a time.
