I am a classically-trained pianist, high-flying aerialist, and results-obsessed consultant...
Five years ago, I left a management consulting firm to follow my dream and pursue a career as an aerialist (I know, I know. I ran away to join the circus).
But fulfillment is complicated, and I am still passionate about helping organizations achieve their goals. I love helping companies to structure, define, and solve their biggest commercial problems, and I thoroughly enjoy crunching numbers and analyzing them to tell a story. Now, though, I also tell stories on a different stage - on a flying trapeze, on aerial silks, and on the piano.
MOVEMENT
I perform and choreograph ground and aerial movement to share compelling, thought-provoking stories.
My background in jazz, modern, and ballet gives me a wide vocabulary to my movement - both in the air and on the ground. I also believe that music should be partnered closely with movement, and I strive to relate the shape of the sound with the shapes I create with my body and the apparatus.
I am available for bookings, instruction, and choreography.
MUSIC
As a performer, I create programs that tell a story or explore a common theme. Where it further improves the music, I try to expand the sensory experience by pairing the music with nature, art, dance, or even food.
I also enjoy helping others enhance their own musicality. I start by working with students to unlock the big-picture and intention behind the notes, and then I focus them on understanding the details, establishing the technical building blocks needed to perform a masterpiece.
I am available for bookings and instruction.
CONSULTING
I help organizations make complex decisions that define a long-term strategy or improve short-term financial performance.
In particular, I have worked closely as an independent consultant with organizations to improve the way they reach those customers. From improving brand awareness and increasing conversion rates to strategizing on core product offerings, all of my work uses a data-driven and structured approach to answer the core questions that affect my clients’ performance.
True change in an organization does not come without empowered leadership. I also work closely with leaders of these organizations to help them build their team’s capabilities and execute a customer-centric approach.
