CHOREOGRAPHY
As a choreographer, every time I enter a studio to share a choreographic work, I find it my responsibility as an artist, humanitarian, and performer to share a world that fosters ideas, philosophies, and lessons that creatively exposes the issues in humanity as well as sharing the silent joys the world has to offer.
