I am an artist.  I am an explorer.  I am a mother.  I am a creator.  I am a performer.  

I believe in art's inherent ability and duty to provoke, to unearth, to challenge, to inspire.  I strive to create dances that do all of this, and on a good day, I will succeed at a few of these.  

Movement serves as an entry point through which I process my personal emotions and experiences, information, and the big, wide world.

I have mad respect for the creative process, and try my best to get out of its way when making a work.  This can cause quite the proverbial gnashing of teeth as I struggle against a force greater than myself.   

As a choreographer and performer, I am deeply committed to digging. I have no control over what I may discover, only my intention TO discover. 

I am obsessed with perspective and point of view.  How content is communicated is often more thrilling than what is communicated. 

I believe in collaboration as a way to build an empowered, trusting community within a creative process.   I like to encourage dancers and other collaborators to express their own personal viewpoints within a work.
