About Me

I grew up dancing at Dynamic Edge—before it was even known by that name—and am proud to now return as an instructor. I was a member of the competition team from 2005 to 2015 under the direction of Lisa Sabath and Sarah Penberthy. During that time, I also danced with Rockwood Summit High School’s Varsity Silver Stars from 2012 to 2015.

I continued my dance career at Western Kentucky University, where I had the opportunity to compete at the collegiate level and concluded my performance career with a National Championship win at Dance Team Union in 2019.

Currently, I work full-time for Weissman as a dance costume designer while teaching at Dynamic Edge. Dance has always been a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about the impact it has beyond the studio—helping dancers build confidence, leadership skills, teamwork, and a strong sense of self both on and off the stage.
