As an artist, I am invested in provoking thought and change in the lives of others and myself. As we humans move through life, we are consistently grasping on to new knowledge that shifts our understanding of the world and ourselves. We live in a complex world that challenges us to either push ourselves and our world further or to settle in the present state. I see dance as a powerful tool that can be used to stimulate a change within oneself and others. I know that I will never reach a state of satisfaction, but I will continue to progress in pursuit of it.

As a dancer, I am empowered in finding the limits and challenging them. These limits including both the psychological and physical side of movement and art. I am inspired by finding the unfamiliar forms of the body. I am interested in the rich textures and qualities of the movement that the body can express. How these textures and qualities can bring to light a story or a statement. Through this art form I hope to prompt thought into individuals’ lives, which then awakens change into the world.
