PERFORMANCES
” Dance as a full engagement of the body and mind has moved me deeply since my childhood. Through movement, I can process intimate and delicate themes that would be hard to be expressed verbally or by other means. Through dance, I can express worlds of imagination within the depths of reality most accurately and deeply. ”
