I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Dance. I began training in the circus arts through Monarch Aerial Arts. Currently, I am artistic director for Monarch's performance group and I teach lyra technique to our students. I also teach multiple styles of dance at a local studio, figure skating at a local ice rink, and I am training for my pilates teaching certification through Balanced Body. I was honored in 2016 to teach an introduction to aerial dance through the American College Dance Association, and have taught dance as a substitute at the university level.
