I typically do a show with 3 props, if the request is one set for the event. I would begin with fire palms, a subtle but enticing fire display that gets people's attention. The next prop would be fire fans, a flashier hand held prop that leads to my final prop: the fire hoop. Depending on what kind of an event it is, I have various themed costumes to choose from. The gypsy/bohemian theme is very popular, though I personally enjoy the more fantastical themes, such as Bacchanalia or Medieval. I also can do a traditional all black/one color get up. Music should be discussed in advance. I enjoy all music, though I am most familiar with Beats Antique, Monsoon Malabar, and the like.

I am a Florida native (from Tampa), I graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, and am currently living in Venice, Florida. I was a formally trained athlete who also enjoyed teaching herself to draw. This combination of discipline, creativity, endurance, and self motivation has lead me to where I am now, as a self employed visual artist and fire performer. One of my greatest passions as a child was the Renaissance Festival and to this day I still love dressing up and entertaining and inspiring people. I also like to combine my artwork with my performances by trying to bring the characters in my work to life.

It is very important that there is a safe area for my fueling station. This means it will be out of the way of people, especially if it is a smoking venue. I will also need about a 10 foot radius to perform in (can be smaller if there is no hoop performance) and access to electricity. I have a PA, extension cords, and clamp lights (for my fueling station).
