I am a Pre-Law student at the University of Southern California, majoring in Law, History, and Culture at Dornsife, with minors in Social Justice and Dance at the Kaufman School. I aim to combine my pursuit of a career as a civil and human rights lawyer with my passion for using dance as a tool for social justice, addressing the inequities that permeate our society.
A Maryland native, I am a Level Nine Pre-Professional Ballerina and a Brown Girls Do Ballet Mentor, committed to reshaping the traditionally Eurocentric art form of ballet to reflect the diversity of America. I am also trained in Bollywood, Contemporary, and Modern dance. I am an advocate for those whose voices are unheard—a changemaker in the dance community. Let’s reframe the narrative. Come dance with me!

RELEVÉ: WHAT’S IN MY BAG?
SC BALLET COMPANY
USC’s only student organization that is devoted to practicing, performing, and choreographing classical and contemporary ballet.
In this position I was able to continue my pre-professional ballerina journey culminating in my performances in USC’s 1st ever performance of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker as a Company Member.
METROPOLITAN BALLET
Level Nine Pre-Professional Ballerina and assisted in providing Big/Little Mentor services to our younger ballerinas in Class Exchanges, Letter Exchanges, Gift Exchanges, as well as fun movie and game night’s. All activities were geared to reinforce positive self-image and awareness for younger ballerinas.
Additionally, I was an Inductee and Member of the National Honor Society for Dance Art where I also actively served my community by participating in events such as: Love Your Body Week, Community Service Performances at the Arts Barn, and Dance a Difference Week.
MARYLAND SCHOOL OF DANCE
Selected to be Assistant Dance Instructor by the Founder & Director of Maryland School of Dance. I was responsible for helping with the demonstration and instruction of dance routines to ballerinas between the ages of 4 and 7.
I believe that my time spent with the younger ballerinas inspired them to be better dancers and gave me joy in being able to contribute to their growth.
