About Me

My greatest passion in life, next to God, is communicating. One way is dancing with a partner, especially West Coast Swing, Salsa and Bachata. Another was is talking to people, reading books about communication, and learning Spanish. I also love to swim and be outdoors or settle down comfortably with a movie or good book. 

​

I live in Oregon, which is my favorite place to live, where I get to be saturated in countless shades of green and more flowers I've ever seen in my life.

​

I like to write and contemplate things from different perspectives about an endless variety of subjects and live with two fantastic roommates.

About Dance.

​

My greatest passion in dance is West Coast Swing. But I also love Salsa and Bachata. To me, dance is the ultimate expression of art and creativity. In dance, I use my entire body to create something beautiful. Partner dancing in particular is my passion because I love to create an amazing connection where art is creating not only something beautiful, but unified. When I am led in a dance I feel as if I have become a living sculpture.

​

I am passionate about communication and to dance with a partner who connects with me well is about communicating in a way that transcends words. The touch, the cues, with differing levels of gentleness and strength to express the music from the soul is so fulfilling to me.
