  • What age did you start playing sport? Tell us about this time or moment in your life.

    I started dancing at the age of 4. My mom said I had a lot of energy and wanted me to channel it into something that would benefit me in the long run.
  • What are your favourite sports; those that you practice at a high level, a simple hobby, and a sport that you'd still like to discover?

    My all time favorite sport is dance. However, I ran track and played volleyball. I was on both varsity teams in high school and ran track at a collegiate level.
  • What gives you the motivation and passion to pursue your sport?

    What gives me the motivation and passion to pursue dance is the emotion and emotional release that goes into dance. Being able to help others connect to their own emotions and express that through movement. Also helping others achieve their movement goals.
  • Do you have a sporting achievement that you're particularly proud of?

    Graduating with honors in dance from my university and receiving recognition from the National Honors Society of Dance Academics.
  • How have your achievements and challenges made you a better sportsperson?

    My achievements and challenges have made me a better dancer because they have pushed me to want more for myself, they have helped me embrace mine and other's differences, and helped e to never give up on myself.
  • If you had to go for a jog with a famous athlete, who would you choose? And what questions would you ask them?

    If I had the opportunity to go on a job with a famous athlete it would be, Josephine Baker. I would ask her about her experience as a dancer and choreographer. What was her motivation?
  • How do you help people stay motivated?

    I help people stay motivated by, helping them look inwards. External satisfaction is great. However one isn't truly satisfied until they are happy with themselves on the inside.
  • What makes you a Superprof in sports?

    What makes me a SuperProfessor in Dance are my degrees and experience. With two degrees in both psychology and dance, with honors in dance. My membership in the National Dance Educators Association and I am a part of a dance company in New York City! I don't only value technique but fun as well! And I believe that makes my classes more enjoyable.
