I received my training from the Washington School of Ballet and from Dame Sonia Arova at the Alabama School of Fine Arts. I received additional training with The Kirov Academy, Houston Ballet Academy, the Joffrey Workshop, and the School of American Ballet.
I joined Oregon Ballet Theatre in 1996 after three seasons with the Alabama Ballet. During my time with the company, I have most recently danced featured roles in works by George Balanchine, Nicolo Fonte, James Kudelka, Trey McIntyre, Yuri Possokhov, Jerome Robbins, Christopher Stowell, and Christopher Wheeldon. During the summers of 2005-2007, I have toured nationally with the Trey McIntyre Project, also serving as the ensemble’s Managing Director from 2004-2006.
My choreography was selected for Ballet Builders 2009 and has been performed by Arova Contemporary Ballet, Ballet Victoria and will be included in the Alabama Ballet's 2009-2010 season. I hold the position of Artistic Coordinator at Oregon Ballet Theatre and teach in the School of Oregon Ballet Theatre.
