I am a seasoned artist and arts educator, with a 25-year history as a performer, choreographer, teacher, and collaborator. Since founding my company, Epiphany Productions in 1996, I have choreographed, directed, and created music for 16 evening length works of "sonic dance theater." I received my MFA in Choreography from UC Davis in June 2006, and have more than 10 years of experience in teaching dance at the collegiate level. I am strongly committed to collaboration and community, to the highest artistic standards in choreography, performance, and teaching, and to providing dancers and students with a safe and challenging environment for creativity and movement.
