In Madison, Wisconsin I had the privilege of dancing with Jin Wen Yu Dancers from 2023-2025 while still in school! I also got to perform with Li Chiao-Ping Dancers in 2022. At the UW Dance department I performed works by Jin Wen Yu, Li Chiao-Ping, Chell Parkins, Charles O. Anderson, and more. I began my Doctorate in Physical Therapy at Midwestern University in June 2025. As I complete my doctorate, I look forward to continue dancing and choreographing around the Chicago-land area!

“Rise was my second home! The community that was built between dancers and teachers was the absolute best! Even now, I always know that I can come back to Rise for anything! Rise truly prepared me for both the collegiate and professional world which allowed me to pursue so much more in dance that I am forever grateful for!”
