Space that inspires me: I am inspired by the space and energy that is created when groups of people come together to engage and to share in an experience. I personally engage best when moving, so whether it be a flash mob, a Rhythm & Motion dance class or chasse-ing down a hotel hallway with my two daughters, I am inspired by the contagious joy, power, and healing energy that is created when dancing together.
I have luckily had the opportunity to choreograph multiple dance flash mobs in the last couple of years including the ArtsWave Splash Dance on Fountain Square. So fun!
Why I live in Cincinnati: I live in Cincinnati because it is home. My family and friends are here and I continue to be inspired by the vibrancy of our arts and our dedication to the community as a whole.
