What becomes possible when we stop treating the body as secondary to thinking and instead let it lead?
I work with creativity as a lived, embodied process — exploring how ideas emerge, how collaboration functions, and how environments can be designed to unlock imagination, trust, and new ways of seeing.
My background spans performance, choreography, facilitation, leadership, and strategy, unified by a consistent focus on human dynamics, systems, and possibility.
When we engage the body, we expand what becomes possible.

I bring a cross-sector view shaped by decades working as an artist, nonprofit leader, facilitator, and systems thinker — along with a deep curiosity for identifying the right questions.
Here are a few questions that inform my current thinking:
How does language exist in the body, and how can we use that understanding to more effectively shape change?
How can creativity function as infrastructure within organizations and systems?
Where are the untapped leverage points within arts and cultural ecosystems?
How can embodied practice inform collective problem-solving?
If we think of the many challenges we face in the world today - excessive screentime, declining health, cultural division, or loneliness to name a few, is dance a powerful solution hiding in plain sight?
