Artistic Direction Choreography Visual Art Costume/Scenic & Prop Design

One of my greatest passions in life is to create. Something I've learned through my experience as a working artist for over 25 years, is there are an infinite number of ways to create. Most people know me for my work as a dancer/choreographer/teacher/performer, but I've worn many hats behind the scenes on number of jobs I've done throughout my career. 

Here is a glimpse of some of my creations over the years, Whether its collaborative, for stage, television, a gallery, or a personal passion project, it all satisfies the same drive to CREATE.

Fast forward to 1:20:30 to watch the live performance

MICHAEL JACKSON BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

I had the honor of being the Creative Director of MJ's annual birthday celebration which includes a live performance by the cast of Michael Jackson ONE (Cirque Du Soleil). Collaborating with the heads of the Michael Jackson Estate I lead and managed a team of Artists, Choreographers, Technical Departments, Wardrobe, Projections, Lighting, and Automation to make this one time performance come to life! What a dream come true to bring this vision to MJ's fans, friends, and family!
