After 15 years at the Joffrey Ballet, I have made the decision to step down from my position as a Rehearsal Director at the end of the 2025-26 season to commit fully to my career as an independent choreographer.
Over the past several years I have had the opportunity to make new work for renowned dance companies around the world such as The Joffrey Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, New York City Ballet, Rome Opera Ballet, Oregon Ballet Theater, Grand Rapids ballet, Los Angeles Ballet, Ballet de l’Opéra National du Capitole Toulouse. I believe my having been a dancer, culminating in my role as principal dancer for San Francisco Ballet, informs much of my choreographic vision today. I now have the opportunity to work with remarkably gifted dancers in dynamic, fruitful and productive environments, each time sharing my love for dance and movement. The work that has emerged from each of these experiences has been extraordinarily well received resulting in other commissions. Simply said, I realize it is the moment for me to venture out on my own to have the time and space to continue developing my unique dance vocabulary; to create ballets that are emotionally charged; to narrate a wide range of stories that reveal the profound complexity of what it is to be human.
My time at the Joffrey Ballet under the incredible leadership of the Mary B Galvin Artistic Director Ashley Wheater MBE and president and CEO Greg Cameron has been nothing but extraordinary. I had the privilege and honor to be part of the company’s growth and be included in Ashley’s artistic vision through various choreographic commissions over many seasons. Ashley’s mentorship and belief in me and my work has been invaluable to my artistic development and making this next step possible. I am forever grateful for his care, nurture and support as an artist, colleague, and friend. The Joffrey Ballet will always hold a very special place in my heart.
I am looking forward to this new moment with confidence, energy and conviction and I am excited for what is to come.

“Cantus Cygnus” will open in Toulouse next season as part of “Trois Cygnes” triple bill. Could not be more proud and happy about this new collaboration and commission.

L’Opéra national du Capitole dévoile sa saison 25-26 !
Les grands mythes universels s’incarnent dans Thaïs de Massenet et Carmen de Bizet, Don Giovanni de Mozart et Salomé de Strauss, Lucia di Lammermoor de Donizetti et Otello de Verdi. Un événement majeur de la mémoire du XXe siècle : La Passagère de Weinberg, pour la première fois en France. Et encore plus de joyaux lyriques avec les versions de concert de trois monuments baroques : Theodora de Haendel, Armide de Lully et Les Boréades de Rameau, sans oublier une série de prestigieux récitals et concerts.
La saison du Ballet du Capitole s’ouvre avec un vibrant hommage à Ravel pour ses 150 ans, avant le féerique Casse-Noisette, puis la réunion de trois chorégraphes d’aujourd’hui autour du thème du cygne, et enfin une création mondiale de la légendaire Carolyn Carlson.
Une saison d’exception où chaque spectacle vous invite au pays des merveilles.
