Artist Bio

I have always been an artist in some form. I started out as a dancer/choreographer, working with such luminaries as Madonna, Cate Blanchett, Michael Jackson, David Fincher, and Andy Samberg, to name a few.

Then, I began writing and directing. I co-created the long-running series of films, A Cinderella Story, writing, directing, and choreographing for actors such as Selena Gomez, Sophia Carson, Jennifer Coolidge, Jane Lynch, etc.

While on the sets of these films and TV shows, I was always drawn to the set design, the costume trailer, and the art department. The colors, the cohesion of a particular set, the texture of the wallpaper, it all fascinated me and drew me in.

I’ve been fortunate to study under wonderful teachers, like my mentor, Robert Burridge.

Art, in all its glorious forms, is what gets me out of bed every morning and sets my dreams afire every night.
