Mission Statement

Artist’s mission statement

"Double Dutch meets Martha Graham, meets African dance, meets Beat-boxing” best describes my current eclectic alchemy of dance, theatre, music, and digital media. But those are containers, words, images. They are not the viscera that fill them. To understand the living, moving inside of my process, we must watch children. Frustrating, non-linear, captivating, and eventually so wise, children are at the heart of my artistic momentum.

Teaching children requires me to be alert and open to imagination as the ruling vehicle. I attempt to transcend judgment, fear, linear narratives, the deadly trifecta of beginning/middle/end, and the oppressive binary of good or bad. I strive to take this magic and wield it to create new spaces for myself and my collaborators. I invite spontaneity to spring forth, as I hold on or let go, to begin with fresh eyes every single time.
