Origins & Beyond
|
Born and raised in rural North Carolina, I remained there through High School. Upon graduation, I became involved with Drum and Bugle Corps that enabled me to tour the entire United States and Canada throughout my college summers. I had brief stints in New York City, Orlando, and Charleston SC before settling in Atlanta.
After ten years hashing out a dancer/choreographer career, I relocated to beautiful Savannah, GA I rarely travel these days but have enjoyed a yearly Key West excursion for the last ten years and would recommend it to everyone. |
Education
|
In 2013, I completed a Master's Degree in Instructional Design/Technology from Georgia Southern University. I have used the skills from this experience to revolutionize arts instruction at many educational outlets across the nation.
In 2011, I concluded a Bachelor's Certification in Dance Education from Brenau University, Gainesville GA. This allowed me to flesh out my public teaching career throughout the State of Georgia. In 1998, I finished my initial Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance Performance at East Carolina University and enabled me to begin a performance career that spanned twenty-five years. In my youth, I found enjoyment in being in the spotlight, and continue to this day to occasionally grace the stage. |
Hobbies & Interests
|
From a young age, storytelling has been my lifeblood, weaving its way through creative writing, theater, dance, music, and film. Transitioning from performer to creator, I now understand the profound value of stories.
With over three hundred choreographic works, films, and music albums under my belt, I grasp the essence of both creating and experiencing art. I've unraveled the mysteries of the human experience, capturing raw emotion and truths in my films, while orchestrating soul-stirring symphonies through music. Now, armed with this vast repertoire, I have a very honed craft. I understand the transformative power of storytelling and invite you to embark on a journey where creativity and instructional design converge. Let's breathe life into immersive learning experiences that captivate learners and transcend boundaries. Together, we'll unleash the incredible power of stories for knowledge, growth, and profound understanding. |
