About Me

MyGen Profile Generator WHERE YOUR TALENTS AND NEEDS OF THE WORLD CROSS, THERE LIES YOUR VOCATION."~Aristotle
I am continually fascinated and passionate with every form of movement. Our bodies are the greatest instruments we will ever own. From trapeze, to pointe shoes, to undulations..
Former soloist with the Joffrey for eight years.
Ballet Mistress/Choreographer for the Dance Theatre of Tampa. Choreographer/Performer for 2nd Nature Productions out of Orlando and San Diego. Freelance performer in ballet, contemporary, and tribal fusion.
Grateful to live a creative life, playing with inspiration. A DREAMER..hoping to leave a positive,lasting impression on the souls I meet. Moved by NATURE,music,the STRONG-WILLED,the INNOCENCE in CHILDREN.. SIMPLE ELEGENCE.. Subtle, Awkward Discomfort...WEARING SOMEONE ELSE'S SHOES..
My performance in "THE COMPANY", directed by the late Robert Altman.

"..after seeing your choreography last night at the world beat show. it was BY FAR the best ballet choreography I have ever seen! I believe that you were also responsible for the dance at the studio where you used the elastic hanging from the ceiling. I loved that! I actually got teary after seeing it. (I was really surprised that I had such a reaction)." ~Heather,Tampa
The following piece is the in studio piece Heather saw:
Hypnogogic 14011 - an experimental, demonstrating struggles of those stricken with Narcolepsy, Cataplexy, and Hypnogogic Hallucinations; a disease that tends to be laughed at in the general, uneducated public.
'Icarus'.."The race is long and, in the end, it is only with yourself." ~Mary Schmich
"Kiss your failures as friends upon the cheek,
take the lesson as love to it's distant end,
and what joy to travel so light,
feel the wind upon your back..." ~Chris Crader

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who makes a positive contribution to society.

We all can learn from each others life experiences. Motivated and innovative thinkers. Those who are comfortable in their own skin, able to communicate, and truly genuine creatures, willing to share their light on this planet.
