I was born in Missoula, Montana and studied dance at Rocky Mountain Ballet Theatre School. In the summer of 2002 I joined the company on its first international tour with Tanzsommer touring five cities throughout Austria. This would be the first of many international trips. I graduated from the University of Iowa in 2009 studying dance and expanding my love for choreography and performance. I joined the staff of RMBT in September of 2009 as a teacher, admin and assistant to the artistic director. With the company I traveled as a production director, choreographer, administrator, teacher and dancer to tours and cultural exchanges in North America, China, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Italy, Austria, Portugal, Russia Pakistan and Cuba.

I was part of the administrative team for the premiere of the Vienna International Ballet Experience (VIBE) in Montana January 2016 and 2017 and assisted in administration of VIBE International in Vienna March 2016 and was a guest teacher for the workshops. In 2017 and 2018, I assisted the administrative team for the premiere of the Global Dance Challenge in Vancouver Canada where I was a guest teacher in the workshops.

I was part of the administrative team that created Ballet Beyond Borders and was the Co-director, Stage Manager and Associate Producer for the four day festival which includes a dance challenge, diplomacy conference and Gala finale. Ballet Beyond Borders has taken place in Missoula, Montana, Los Angeles, California, and Havana, Cuba.
