Circus finds us when we need it most.

 I was three years old when I started my journey training in gymnastics, ballet, and hand-to-hand acrobatics. I quit while training for the Jr. Olympic tryouts to pursue other avenues of sport and movement throughout my teens. At age 16, I signed my first contract for a national high diving show. After high school, I found myself coaching and choreographing high school gymnasts and then off to college for what I had no idea.

Fast forward through most of my boring twenties when I discovered the flying trapeze and circus arts. Then during the next 10 years, I jumped from contract to contract depending on when and where they needed me and for how long. It was such a gift to experience so many opportunities that provided me with a breadth of knowledge in rigging and equipment design while coaching adults and kids in all disciplines of circus arts, performing for corporate gigs, touring with traditional circus shows both in the States and Europe and performing in contemporary theater productions as well.

Today, I bring over 20 years of experience and knowledge of movement to spontaneous hangout sessions with friends. I love inspiring inquisitive creativity and spatial awareness, and supporting folks as they unlock personal boundaries, gain strength, and build skills in the air and on the ground. My movement techniques stem from my drive, to have fun. 

Today, I'm a retired Seattle-based circus goofball specializing in Circus Stuff: Flying Trapeze, Aerial anything, Acrobatics, Trampoline, and Stilt Dancing.

Former Aerial Dept. Head for SANCA, School of Acrobatics and New Circus Arts, while I returned to school and obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Washington - Seattle, WA, and currently employed as a design engineer for the Port of Seattle.
