Originally from Saginaw Fort Worth, Having been introduced to dance through Salsa & Bachata, I soon found myself hooked on the country dancing scene in 2021, I was far from a natural having just come out of Marching Band. It has since become my goal to cultivate new dancers and employ driven dancers. For every student I teach, I aim to build confidence, skill, but most importantly, incite fun on the dancefloor.

Dancing throughout DFW since 2019, I've learned many partner dancing styles ranging from Bachata, Urbankiz, to Brazilian Zouk. In the past few years I've found a love for country dancing and love to spread the joy by helping students master the basics, while encouraging them to find their own style and flair.
