I was born in Orlando, Florida but grew up in Las Vegas,Nevada. I’ve been back in Florida for the last 14 years and have been swing dancing for the last 11. I’ve been teaching dance for 9 years.

I’ve been putting on dance events in the central Florida area for over 5 years which include:
Swinger Outings, Swing Pins, Swing in the Park, Dancin’ in the Dark, After Hours Blues dances as well as dance workshops and several series in Lindy Hop, Blues and Fusion dancing.

The Blues n Soul Experience in June of 2008 was my first Dance Exchange that I ran. In March of 2009, we had the Orlando Lindy Exchange, ORLX, in which I was a part of the committee through ODE, the Orlando Dance Enthusiasts. In June of 2009, I ran the 2nd Blues n Soul. I have also brought in World Champion Swing Dancer, Yuval Hod, to teach his two day Dance workshops with great review.

My Goal is to help the dance scene in Orlando, Florida and beyond grow. If you’d like to be a part of or scene, feel free to contact me or join us at one of our many dances. Until then, have fun and I’ll See you on the Dance Floor!
