Originally from Dallas, Texas, I trained at Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts (BTWHSPVA).
In December 2022, I graduated summa cum laude from Fordham University / The Ailey School with three degrees: BFA in Dance, Anthropology, and International Studies with a concentration in Global Affairs.
While at BTWHSPVA, I performed works by Lar Lubovitch, Peter Chu, Annabelle Lopez Ochoa, Penny Saunders, Francisco Gella, and Takehiro Ueyama.
As a student in the Ailey / Fordham BFA Dance Program, I had the opportunity to dance works by Robert Battle, Helen Simoneau, Ethan Colangelo, Yusha-Marie Sorzano, Ray Mercer, Caterina Rago, and Thang Dao.
In my senior year at BTWHSPVA, I was named a 2018 Winner in Contemporary/Modern Dance by the National YoungArts Foundation. Additionally, I worked with Dallas Black Dance Theater as an Administrative Arts Intern during their 2017-2018 season.
I have studied at intensives such as b12 Workshop Festival in Berlin, Paul Taylor American Modern Dance, The Martha Graham School, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, The Ailey School, and Mejia Ballet International.
