While a graduate student at Cornell, I was also a Principal Dancer with Ithaca Ballet and I performed in Cornell's dance department productions. In Minneapolis, I danced with Metropolitan Ballet and performed in their 2007 Nutcracker. In Columbus, I took classes at Ballet Met and I danced with Xclaim Dance Company, a contemporary jazz company (2009-2014). Here in Reno, I've performed with various local companies including AVA Ballet Theatre in Sleeping Beauty (2015), Downtown Dance Collective as part of Artown (2015, 2018), and UNR's Spring Dance Concerts (2018, 2019). In 2019, I joined Around The Stage (ATS) Modern Dance Company in Reno; I performed in Showbiz Cabaret (2019), a music video collaboration with ATS, Artown, and LA-based musicians Adriana and The Wildflowers called "Take My Hand" (2020), Splattered (2021), Seraphim (2022-23), Reno Dance Mix (Jan 2023), Reno Dance Festival (May 2023), 86 The Dance Suite (Jan 2024), and we performed selections of these works for the Dog Days of Summer Dance Festival held at the Pioneer Center Plaza (2022, 2023). Since then, I have performed with Belle Contemporary Dance Company both at UNR (Dec 2023) and as part of the Dog Days Festival (Aug 2024). I am currently a company dancer with the Dapper Tappers and have performed with them for the Pioneer Center's "Spirit of the Season" (2024, 2025). I am also a company dancer wtih Collateral and Co., a collaborative contemporary dance company and we recently performed ``Fragments of Existence" at the Nevada Museum of Art (July 2025).

I have choreographed for various productions in Ithaca, NY, Columbus, OH, and Reno, NV. Since moving to Reno in 2015, I have choreographed several pieces for the Conservatory of Movement's performance/outreach group in collaboration with Marty Lewis. In 2024, I co-choreographed a contemporary ballet piece ("Nonlinear Dreams") for Truckee Meadows Community College's winter dance performance "Continuuium". In spring 2025, I reset this piece as a guest artist for Xclaim Dance Company in Columbus for their spring performance "Seventeen". In fall 2025, I co-choreographed a tap piece for The Dapper Tappers which we performed at the Reno Aces Stadium as part of the "Home for the Holidays" program.
