For more than 30 years, I have had the privilege of teaching dance, and I am so excited to share my love of dance with the next generation. My goal is to help students realize that they can accomplish anything they set their minds to as long as they practice, stay focused, and love what they are doing.

 

There is no greater joy than seeing a child's face light up as they shine bright on the "big stage." I look forward to guiding their footsteps, building their confidence, and watching them grow as dancers and individuals as we begin another exciting year together.

It is truly a joy to work with my Encore family because that is exactly what we are—a family. The relationships we build and the support we share make Encore such a special place.

 

A little about me…I have been happily married to my wonderful husband, Brady, for 29 years, and we are proud parents of our son, Brock, who recently earned his Master's Degree in Marine Biology. When I'm not in the studio, you'll often find me at Smith Lake or Orange Beach enjoying time on the water with our dog, Hooper.

 

As for my education, I hold a Master's Degree in Exercise Physiology from UAB. However, my greatest education has come from the privilege of teaching multiple generations of dancers throughout the years. The lessons, relationships, and experiences I've gained from my students have been among the most rewarding parts of my journey.
