My choreographic process if filled with the passion to share unheard stories to portray and capture the rawness and inspiration behind survival. I look to tell powerful, untold, stories to capture audiences and take them back in time through art making.
If you are interested in collaborating on a story ballet or if you have a story you want to share, please contact me.

Stella, a short story ballet, takes you back in time to Warsaw, Poland. It tells the story of Stella Sonnenschein who survived World War II by embarking on a journey of commitment, determination, and hardship. Stella reunites with her mother at the end of the war.
Stella was gracious enough to let me interview her and learn about her entire story. I am grateful for her time and grace.
