I perform polished, pre-choreographed acts or acts tailored to your needs. Performances can include a single act or 10 minute set every half an hour (for 1-2 hours) or a combination of the two. I can perform on the floor, a stage, or bring in my contortion table which I am able to set up and take down myself.
I am a circus artist specializing in contortion and trapeze with secondary skills in silks, lyra/aerial hoop, ballet, and tap. I have been performing and training professionally for six years and although I am based in Durham, NC, I travel to both perform and train.
