I began dancing when I was 3 years old; I started competing at 9 years old and began to student-teach at 16. 

My mission as a dance teacher is to create environments that students thrive in, feeling comfortable to learn and grow as both people and dancers. 

Planning to major in Dance at college, I hope to be a dance teacher for the rest of my life. 

My goal for this project is to spread awareness about the physical, sexual, and verbal abuse that happens in the dance community, an often overlooked issue.
