I began ballroom dancing in 2003 and have been coached by many top U.S. and international professionals, including all U.S. Smooth champions from 2007 through 2013. I performed in numerous shows with nine different studios, in two professionally directed productions, and at the Chicago Salsa Congress. Before turning professional, I was the open amateur standard champion at the Windy City Open, and was a finalist at several other competitions. I have 5 years of experience teaching and competing with students at all ages and levels, and my choreography has received multiple recognitions. I’ve also studied ballet, modern, contact improvisation, and kinesiology. 

I’m looking for a professional partner in or near Chicago (or who is willing to come to Chicago) to practice regularly and compete with in either Standard or Smooth. A strong standard background is important for either style. I would consider also competing in Latin for the sake of doing 10-Dance, but I have little interest in Rhythm. I would prefer someone with at least 3-4 years experience competing and who is at least 64in or so tall (I’m 72”). I am extremely dedicated and passionate about my dancing, so I hope to find a partner who is too. That being said, I am willing to be flexible with our practice arrangement to accommodate your schedule. Please contact me if you’d like to talk!
