About Me

Miss Miranda began dancing at age three and grew up as a competitive studio dancer with a focus on jazz, acro, and hip hop. In high school, she was a cheerleader, dance team captain, and choreographer, and also performed in school musicals. She continued her training at Webster University, earning a minor in Ballet and studying choreography and movement.

With over a decade of teaching experience, Miranda has worked with competitive studios, coached the varsity dance team at Incarnate Word Academy for five years, and choreographed all of their award-winning competition routines. She also danced with Ashleyliane Dance Company for five seasons and taught jazz technique on staff.

Currently, she teaches jazz and acro at Dynamic Edge Dance Center, where she loves sharing her passion with students—especially her two daughters, Lia and Bella, who are proud members of the competition team. She also works as a freelance choreographer with Weissman.
