Polarity Trip, 2024, Brown University

The dancers and I collaborated to create movement material and spatial design that explored the different directions the body and the body's energy can move--soft/sharp, tension/release, even/distorted, balanced/off-balanced, projecting outward/inward, connections with self/others.

Mesh, 2023, Roger Williams University

Six dancers. Each day we move, leaving or coming and moving around, between and through space, time, and ourselves. This piece blends dynamic movement qualities, and spatial patterns, to inspire these occurrences.

​

Locus Point, 2023, Providence College.

This work for six dancers is inspired by the shape of the circle, its unification, the feeling of community, and the idea that the connections we make between ourselves and others, and all things are points of departure, informing and supporting us as we move through life.

Vessel Breath, 2020, Hunter College

This multimedia piece uses dance, pre-existing film footage, and textiles to embroider spatial design, depth, and perspective.                 Video Link: https://vimeo.com/487468579

​

Red Garden, 202o, Hunter Dance Festival 

This solo work was created in response to the COVID pandemic during my time in quarantine. When I finally stepped outside, the sense of isolation lingered. The experience evoked the color red—conveying tension, danger, and death, but also hope, passion, and a love of life. These contrasts shape my movement vocabulary and embodies the symbolism of red throughout the piece.

Below the Line, 2019, Hunter College 

A trio of dancers emerges from a piece of fabric to reveal connections with space and the relationships they build between each other and their bodies.

Crash and Move, 2019Hofstra University 

A large group dance, this piece uses a movement vocabulary that thrusts dancers into space. The cast moves with precision and speed. Suddenly they roll, jump, spiral, twist, and turn, both in space and within their bodies. This work collaborates with the dancers and musician/composer Ryan Wolfe.

A dance made for 12 dancers, this work has a dynamic spatial design that spotlights an array of large sweeping movements and small gestural actions.

​

Outer System, 2014, Hofstra University

Eight dancers dance independently and in groups—quartets, solos, duets, and trios— to build a functioning unit, moving as one. Composer Jordan Chiolis creates a sound score to portray a feeling of distant space that moves beyond our atmosphere.

Screendance

​

Catching Fire, 2025, Ecoperformance Film Festival 

In 2023, the largest wildfire since 1942 swept through Queens River Preserve in Exeter Rhode Island scorching nearly 700 acres. My dance film frames the fire's aftermath and the emotional response expressed through movment and dance. The film’s images reveal destruction and mourning, but they also reveal rebirth and renewal.

Remerge, 2024, Ecoperformance Film Festival

In late winter of 2023, a narrative of solitude, shifting perspectives, and recentering comes into focus through a series of improvised dances at Rome Point Preserve in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The forest becomes a cathedral, where deep connections emerge and reemerge, forming an eco-poetic vision.

​BodyVerse, 2022, (MFA Thesis Project, Hunter College) 

This thesis project is a dance film that explores dance improvisation, various body systems, and our deep, intertwining connection with time, memory, and the natural world. Rather than a live performance, the film offers an embodied experience—inviting the viewer into a space of presence and resonance with their own body and the earth.

**Before viewing my video, to "activate" the viewer, I encourage you to participate in a pre-previewing warm-up. Please view the PDF for guidelines.

This piece captures light and shadow and the surrounding space to frame my body's shape and form in various ways. The ambient music adds a poetic texture to the work.
