CURRENT MISSION

¨Let the beauty you love be what you do"

ABOUT ME

I recently finished my BA in Anthropology of the Performing Arts and now work full time as a circus coach and performer. My specialty is hand-balancing and contortion, but I also do some aerial silks and trapeze.

I'm about to start a year-long project to study handbalancing and contortion traditions around the world! I will spend three months each in Mongolia, China, India and Montreal...

PHILOSOPHY

"Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who are alive."

-Howard Thurman
