CHOREOGRAPHY
I create contemporary dance-theatre works that combine physically demanding movement, theatricality, and humor to explore what it means to be human. Drawing on my backgrounds in dance and playwriting, I am interested in creating performances that blur the boundaries between movement, character, and narrative, often favoring associative and nonlinear structures over traditional storytelling.
My movement language is rooted in percussive floorwork, athletic physicality, and a willingness to push the body toward its limits. Within that physical intensity, I search for moments of vulnerability, absurdity, tenderness, and connection. Humor plays a central role in my work—not as a distraction from difficult subjects, but as a way of inviting audiences closer to them, deepening the cut of vulnerability.
My creative process is driven by curiosity and experimentation, with an improvisatory sense of fluidity and redirection. I create physically rigorous worlds that invite audiences to engage not only intellectually, but viscerally—through recognition, empathy, discomfort, laughter, and wonder.
