October 8, 2019Emily is a gifted artist both in technical skill and creative expression. She dances beautifully and cohesively in group choreographies but also delivers striking solos. Her movement is both mesmerizing and entertaining; she has a highly-developed ability to communicate a wide range of feelings and emotions in her performances. She is obviously trained in several distinct dance practices, and can interpret music of any genre. Her varied skill sets create a unique personal fusion that would be fitting for ANY event where art, dance, music, or entertainment is a focus. I can’t wait to witness Emily dance again!

Emily performed in a Halloween Showcase I hosted, and she was nothing short of reliable, dependable, and a great performer. I have known Emily for little over a year and I always enjoy our interactions.

August 28, 2019It is my utmost pleasure to STRONGLY ENDORSE & RECOMMEND Emily's artistic services. I have hired her multiple times throughout the years to dance and perform a wide variety of feature-length artistic events, from large-scale stage performances to art gallery installation performances. As a choreographer and artistic director of live performance with a Master's Degree from New York University (NYU)'s highly esteemed TISCH SCHOOL OF THE ARTS, I know high-quality art when I see it and am committed to excellence in creative projects. Emily is a very talented performer, stunning dancer and a hard-working, dedicated artist who gives her very best to the projects she participates in. She is extremely devoted and RELIABLE....hiring her to perform or a be a part of your artistic event would give a boost to any endeavor! I highly recommend Emily!

An area of space that is mostly flat to dance on. Perhaps a carpet if the ground is too rough.
