Movement. Culture. Individuality.
With 20 years of dance experience and 15 years producing performances, I create work rooted in street dance, culture, and individuality. Through Move Different, Texas Street Dance Weekend, and original productions, I bring artists and communities together through performances, workshops, residencies, and artist development.
My Posse’s on Broadway
Creator, Director & Choreographer
A dance production exploring hip-hop history through a Houston lens. Commissioned by Performing Arts Houston, premiered at the Wortham Center, and later presented through the Hobby Center’s Discovery Series.
Move Different Workshop Tour
Founder & Teaching Artist
A free House dance workshop series powered by Red Bull, connecting participants in Austin, Houston, Tulsa, and Dallas through movement, musicality, and individual expression.
Texas Street Dance Weekend
Producer & Curator
An annual Houston gathering celebrating hip-hop and street dance through battles, workshops, performances, and conversations that connect artists and community.
Artist Development
Mentor & Facilitator
I help artists turn creative ideas into clear plans, compelling proposals, and confident pitches. Drawing on my experience producing work and building cultural programs, I share practical tools for grant writing, proposal development, entrepreneurship, and communicating the value of an idea.
Through workshops, artist talks, and mentorship, we explore how to tell the story of your work, identify the right audience or partner, and pitch and sell ideas with clarity. The experience combines conversation, guided exercises, and feedback to help artists strengthen their next steps.
Focus areas: Grant writing • Creating proposals • Creative entrepreneurship • Pitching & selling ideas
Brand Partnerships & Cultural Consulting
Red Bull • Dance Your Style
My partnership with Red Bull spans hosting, judging, DJing, and cultural consulting for Dance Your Style. I bring a dancer’s perspective and experience in street dance culture to work that connects artists, audiences, and community.
From guiding the energy of a live event to judging movement, shaping the music, and advising on cultural programming, my roles support the experience both on the floor and behind the scenes.
Roles: Host • Judge • DJ • Cultural Consultant
Commercial Performance & Choreography
Performer & Choreographer
My commercial work includes dancing with Erykah Badu and Anthony Hamilton, along with performance credits with Pitbull, Flo Rida, Tobe Nwigwe, and more. I also choreographed for Kendrick Lamar’s Final Four performance in Houston, in collaboration with Coca-Cola. These experiences bring my street dance foundation into live music and commercial performance.
I collaborate with artists, creative teams, and brands on choreography and performances that connect movement with the music, the audience, and the vision of the project.
Let’s create your next experience.
