If you are looking for a choreographer, I am your guy! Recently I choreographed a ballet, “Peace Be Stillâ€, which was performed by my dance company, VISIONS Contemporary Ballet, in September 2008 for the fall Fielday Performance at the Abrons Arts Center in New York City. VISIONS debuted in NY in 2005 at the Producers Club, appearing there again in 2007. It had guest performances at Tribeca Performing Arts Center and the Kabbalah Centre.
