About Me

I am a professional ballet dancer and teacher. I love having the ability to link the art of dance with other fine arts such as photography, painting, drawing, etc. I plan on auditioning for some major ballet companys in the upcoming months and am looking to update my portfolio with ballet/dance related shoots as well as portraits.
