Performance

I have to reach deeply into my psyche to find different emotions and feelings to express onstage. For me, I don’t make up a character on stage. I take a little piece of myself, something that already exists that I have a reference to...and I expand and flourish in that little piece of truth.

While performing, I can be uncensored and I know it’s safe and acceptable. Because dance happens live, it forces me to be present. I only have one chance, right now, to make something happen on stage and that excites me.
