Description:
My project includes research of the connection between the human body and complex emotions that manifest and festers in our consciousness. This performance is a culmination of a creative process that is driven by emotions and the affects of the human body both humanly and artistically. The exploration and experimentation of specific emotions will be investigated through an introspective process from myself and my cast. Through discussion, quantitative journal research, movement exploration, and improvisation, the culminating artistic creation will be a byproduct of extensive research and rehearsal processes.
Biography: 
I am a movement researcher that specializes in contemporary fused floorwork expressing human passion and creating as a gift to be shared with others. I am a creative thinker and mover that inspires to awaken the hearts and shift the consciousness of my audience. My mission is to create change and ignite a visceral reaction that leaves the audience contemplating; to be a force that strives to continuously work, learn, and transform; to become an aware and mindful mover; to be a lover of people and the arts. In my work, I value the evolution of the process that is created in the space geared specifically from collaborating with artists. The physical visceral work that I create has been said to resonate deeply for the artists performing, that it ultimately allows the witnesses to experience the same reaction. My intention is deeper than just sharing art. It expresses different qualities, fragilities, passion, and stimulates internal reflection and processing.
