She has danced since she could walk, beginning at the Severance Conservatory in Fresno, CA, and traveling to Joffrey Chicago, ABT, and LINES Contemporary Ballet, where her passion for dance really took root. While most of her training is in ballet she has also dabbled in many things from Irish step dancing to character to hip hop. She loves eXpressions, because it empowers her to continue to realize her artistic voice and it comes with a bunch of fun, supportive, artistic people who feel like family.
