Career Mentoring

You deserve to take back control of your dance career.

As a former professional ballet dancer, I understand how difficult navigating a dance career can be. It can feel overwhelming and insurmountable when you're first starting out.

That’s where I come in!

As a Dance Career Mentor, I help dancers find intention and clarity in their career goals, demystify the world of professional ballet, and put a strategic plan in place with actionable steps.

Through 1-1 career mentorship, the dancers I work with gain the skills necessary to build a smart and sustainable career in the dance industry.
