Her interdisciplinary dance-theatre works are marked by a unique visceral and kinetic voice that traces the changeable electricity of thought and sensation that underlies human interaction and interpersonal relationships. 
Merging American experiences with her European roots she creates evocative psychological landscapes of dynamic elegance that embrace intellect and instinct in equal measure. 
For the past 15 years she has been the artistic director of ALBAN ELVED DANCE COMPANY, as well as working as a freelance choreographer at theatres and universities across Europe and the US, including residencies at UN Las Vegas, Auburn University, Salem College, Wake Forest University and others. She has performed and choreographed at the Prague Quadrennial, the T-Werk Potsdam, MoBe Berlin, the Landesbuehnen Sachsen, Germany, Dance New Amsterdam NYC, The Snowy Range Dance Festival, The International Aerial Dance Festival, CO, Dock 11 Berlinto name a few. 

She holds a BFA in Dance and Choreography from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and a MA/MFA in Scene and Costume Design and Scenography from the Technische Universitaet Berlin, Germany. Her continuing studies in biomechanics, the Axis Syllabus and massage therapy inform and shape her teaching, guiding dance technique out of the realms of style into an understanding of the ability to move intelligently and passionately within the parameters of anatomical and biomechnical guidelines.

ARTIST STATEMENT 
Developing a new work is a process of love that is endlessly rewarding to me. I am enchanted by visceral and fierce kinetic expressions and by spaces that offer transformation. As an interdisciplinary artist I conceive choreography, costume-, scenic-, lighting- and sound design for many of my works. And,... I collaborate often with artists and people from other fields, such directors, dancers, visual artists, sculptors, composers, choreographers and scienctists. I love creating theatre/art spaces that leave room for the characters to create magic, for intricately interwoven relationships and strong personalities to develop. I am a detail-oriented and investigative director and my concepts for stagings and scene designs are based on a search for deeply seated layers of the subconscious. Intellect and instinct are at work in equal measure. Exploring the precipices of human emotion, I am drawn to friction, confrontation and vulnerability. I do not fear beauty. I avoid illustration. I crave a deep look into the soul of a work and I need absolute honesty within each work. With that, art can change our hearts.
