I am curious about how to create community-engaged projects that support enriching collaborations between artists and community members in territories and areas beyond the Lower Mainland.

As part of my work at Dance West Network, I am currently part of the Pathways pilot project, and have participated in several of the Talking Stick @PuSh Industry series as well as the San’yas Anti-Racism Indigenous Cultural Safety Training Program. I have also participated in conversations and workshops with equity and accessibility consultants Seika Boye and Amy Amantea. I am looking forward to participating in Vines Arts Ecosystems Symposium: Strengthening Artist Relations in late November 2023.

I appreciate the people so willing to give of their time and the many opportunities offered as we walk this path to deeper understanding.

Additionally, with a MA in Dance from New York University and Advanced Arts and Entertainment Certificate from Capilano University, I have previously worked for several dance companies and organizations in Vancouver, including DanceHouse, MACHiNENOiSY and Mascall Dance.
