A long time CYT fan, I have enjoyed watching showcase and show performances over the years until finally the siren call of the theater was too much and I jumped in to the role of CYT teacher. So far I have spent time with the Our Gang kids where we explored dance, music and rhythm in the world, directed a couple of handbells class, and most recently taught the Radio Theater class where we had fun learning about voice acting, script writing and sound effects. This fall I am returning to my dance roots and am excited to be teaching a beginner’s ballet class to help CYT students establish the foundational dance knowledge and strength they will use in show choreography. I have previously worked with children and young adults in various educational settings and have been thrilled to have a place to share my love of music, dance, and theater with the next generation of performers.
