I began dancing at the age of three at Anita’s Dance Studio in Muskego, Wisconsin, where my passion for dance first took root. By the age of 14, I started assisting in classes, which quickly grew into a lifelong commitment to teaching. Over the past 17 years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding and inspiring dancers of all ages.
During high school at Waukesha West High School, I was a member of the varsity dance team, competing throughout my junior and senior years. I also began dancing competitively at my studio as a sophomore, attending Tremaine Dance Conventions and consistently qualifying for nationals each year.
Throughout my years of dancing, I’ve had the opportunity to work with renowned choreographers including Marcea Lane, Barry Lather, Carrie Ann Inaba, Dee Dee Wood, Josh Bergasse, Zach Woodlee, Keri LaGrand, Derrick Schrader, Marty Dew and Tony Bellissimo. Experiences that helped shape my style and deepen my technical foundation.
Dance has always been a central part of my life, and I’m passionate about sharing that love, discipline, and artistry with the next generation of dancers.
