Dance has the power to transcend traditional stages and bring healing. I believe in the power of vulnerability, both in my dancers and my audience, exploring techniques where they can be fully present. I strive to create experiences that resonate universally, making dance accessible to diverse communities.

​

I use dance as a means of exploring complex themes that leave a lasting impact. Mental health, human connection and spirituality form the heart of my artistic vision, as I draw inspiration from my own life experiences. As an engineer turned dance artist, I bring a unique perspective to problem-solving and structuring in my choreography, allowing me to create compelling and emotionally charged dance works.

​

Being mentored by Rick Tjia (Cirque de Soleil) has instilled a practical approach to my process. I draw upon this influence to assess elements, particularly those used in marketing, PIXAR and music composition, that evoke emotions, captivate audiences, and create meaning.

​

I plan my studio time through researching and thematic extraction, laying the groundwork for collaboration with my team. I bring a diverse movement vocabulary, combining tap, street, jazz, and contemporary elements to enrich the expressive range of my pieces.

​

Collaborating with artists from different backgrounds enriches my creative process, fostering an inclusive environment. I encourage my dancers to engage in the choreographic process, giving them creative tasks and the freedom to express themselves. This authenticity breathes life into my choreography, ensuring a deep emotional connection with the performers.
