About Me

Half artist half teacher, I’m always looking to navigate my life with a mixture of both :)
I'm a professional dancer and a yoga and fitness instructor that loves learning and teaching movement and art related disciplines. I believe self-exploration can be composed out of the practices we install in our lives, and by investing in the right ones for us we can develop and enrich our experience. From painting to dancing I love the research process of different worlds that all add up on my life menu, serving as my entry points to development and presence.

Currently based in Austin Texas, I'm looking for more opportunities to learn, teach, and perform in Europe. The opportunity to meet people from around the world and open up to different perspectives excites me!

Due to a dance teacher I have based in Berlin I plan on moving there soon!
