The Director

I founded Forza Dance from a belief that dance has the power to bring people together, foster empathy, and inspire meaningful dialogue. As both an artist and producer, I became increasingly aware of the barriers that often exist between dance and the communities it seeks to serve. Through Forza, I strive to create work and experiences that feel welcoming, accessible, and deeply human.

My vision for Forza extends beyond performance. The organization serves as a platform for artistic exploration, community engagement, and professional development, supporting both emerging and established artists through performances, festivals, classes, and collaborative opportunities. Whether presenting a new choreographic work, producing the BLOOM Emerging Artist Festival, or hosting community-centered events such as Shindig, our goal is to create spaces where artists and audiences can connect authentically and accessibly.

At its core, Forza is guided by the belief that the arts are essential to a thriving society. I am committed to cultivating an organization that uplifts artists, builds new audiences for dance, and uses movement as a tool for connection, curiosity, and positive social impact.
