I grew up in a small town in Southern California and went to college in San Diego with a major in History. In the late 1990s I fell in love with Swing Dancing, and, unbeknownst to me, that was the beginning of a long career in music and dance.
I spent nearly two decades as a staple in New Orleans’ thriving music and dance scene before moving to Western Massachusetts with my family.
I’ve won national and international Swing Dance competitions, choreographed and starred in award-winning stage productions, been a featured dancer and musician on television shows and in movies, and have performed on stages and in venues around the world.
I love to spread the joy and connection of social dance. In a world where more and more people feel alone, music and dance offer to bring people together.
