My journey through the world of dance began at the age of 4. I fuse all dance forms that I have encountered, Classical American Belly Dance being the grounding root. Ballet, Jazz, Latin, Irish step, Modern, even elements of figure skating are mixed with Folkloric, Tribal, Cabaret, Gypsy, and Turkish dance stylization, making a unique tapestry of uniting dance forms.
     I've had the pleasure of studying some of the finest instructors in the country, most notably Suhaila Salimpour, Nourhan Sharif, and .Rachel Brice I also hold a teaching background in Fitness, Figure Skating, and Belly Dance spanning across 18 years. Ive also studied Kinesiology: Health & Fitness at URI and I am a certified Group Exercise Instructor.
     I have worked in many creative collaborations including: The Danger Danger Birds Burlesque Troupe (Awarded Motif's Best Live Act 2009) 2006-2010; Fountain Street Creative; The ViennaGram. Some of my highlighted performances include: Rock the Ink; Sound Session; Indie Arts Fest; The Pirates Ball (Newport); New England Punk, Goth, & Metal Fest; Rebel Roots Music Fest (Maine) and Providence's Roller Derby Half Time show.
     Currently I perform with Tevellus, a Middle Eastern groove band; Hemlok, an experimental rock band and I am also involved in my local drumming community. I can be seen performing at The Bell Street Chapel Drum Circle and at The Temple of Music regularly.
     I also perform as a solo act for various events such as music and cultural festivals benefit events, exercise/health and wellness demonstrations, renaissance faires, parties, and private functions. public and private functions.
