About me...

I began ballet classes as a child and quickly fell in love. I loved how it felt, the music, building the technique week on week and the excitement of exams and shows.

Of course, like all good things, dance came with a heavy price tag. Mostly in the form of injury. My lower spine was so severely injured at one point I wasn’t sure if I would walk again, never mind dance. On recommendation of my physio, I began Pilates. The simple but effective exercises gradually and permanently rehabilitated my spine. I knew I just had to share this with as many people as possible.

I was always curious about the production side of dance and theatre, so during the pandemic I retrained into dance producing and business management. I got my first producing role straight away, producing small to large scale shows, events, workshops, festivals and outreach projects. It brings me great joy to now be on the other side of the curtain, advocating for talented dancers and bringing their wonderful ideas to fruition.

Particularly inspired through my working knowledge of Raqs Sharki (Bellydance), my dance research focuses on Edward Said’s Orientalism and Homi Bhabha’s Multiculturalism. I was in one of the last cohorts to graduate from the highly niche topic of Dance Anthropology (Roehampton university) in 2019 with Distinction. I currently develop my dance research with Society for Dance Research and London Contemporary Dance School in sharing, lecturing and presenting at conferences.
