I’m the owner and director of UCLA Dance Academy, where our mission is simple — Inspiring Confidence Through Dance. I’ve been dancing, teaching, and sharing my love for movement for years, and nothing makes me happier than watching dancers grow both on and off the stage.

From our tiniest preschool dancers to our award-winning competition teams, I believe every student deserves a place where they feel supported, challenged, and celebrated. At UCLA Dance Academy, we mix hard work with a whole lot of fun, and we treat our studio like family.

When I’m not in the studio, I’m usually bringing my creative ideas to life — whether it’s graphic design, painting, organizing, or any other project that lets me be hands-on. I also love spending time with my family, my amazing fiancé and my crazy, goofy stepdaughter. When I get the chance to relax, you can find me on the boat - no matter the season.

Dance changes lives — and I’m so grateful to spend mine making that happen.
