DANCER CHOREOGRAPHER INSTRUCTOR


I am a passionate and dedicated dancer with an intense love for performing arts. My infatuation for the art of movement has drawn me to
the Garth Fagan Dance Company. Your emphasis on modern composition is extremely beneficial for the growth of a dancer. I've spent the
last five years honing my signature style of choreography and joining your company would tremendously increase my technique. The
ability to teach while dancing with the company is an amazing opportunity, which I am excited to take advantage of. One of the most
rewarding parts about dancing is the ability to teach others. My passion for the art of dance translates directly into my teaching style and
personal choreography. In addition to my intense contemporary and lyrical experience, my extensive training in tap and ballroom makes
me a well-rounded performer. I truly believe my extreme affinity for partnering and aerial work is a unique strength that would benefit
the Garth Fagan Dance Company.
