START: After a Bachelor in Economics specialised in Marketing, I decided to follow my dream: becoming a professional dancer. I took my first audition at The Center of Advanced Training Rick Odums in Paris (2017).

During two years, I trained in Ballet, Jazz, Horton, Graham, and Contemporary.  Thanks to this school I had the opportunity to work with Bruce Taylor, Géraldine Amstrong, Stéphania Pavan, Magali Vérin, and Rafael Molina. After a year, I obtained the EAT Jazz which is the first step to becoming a teacher and I had the great pleasure to dance for Akhram Khan in his piece Kadamati at the Hotel de Ville de Paris (2018).

During my second year, I worked for LA Style Dance Company as a dancer and we did performances in Amsterdam at the OBA Theater (2019). 

 

MOVE ON: After these two years of training in Paris, I decided that it was time to move on. I took an audition in London for Transitions Dance Company which is the MA in Dance Performance of Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance (Febuary 2019). I had the honour to work with, Elisa Pagani in her piece "Firslty, my name"; Cameron Mcmillan in his piece "Irresponsible Gods"; H2Dance in their piece "Un-Sounds". The company started a tour in England, we went to London, Dundee, Cardiff, Ilfracombe, Manchester. Due to Covid we had to stop the tour. Thanks to Trinity Laban Conservatoire I had the great opportunity in September 2020 to work with Theo TJ Lowe in his piece "Let me move" with some other dancers from Transitions Dance Company.

 

MAKE THE MOST OF IT: During the pandemic year, I decided to continue to grow every day in a new environment which was mainly my flat. I joined regular classes from Winifred Burnet Smith, Kristian Lever, Hofesh Shechter, Gaga Classes. I took part in an online programme of a month with New Adventures, I had the opportunity to work with Michela Meazza (dancer of the company), Etta Murfitt, and Kerry Biggin. 

​Then I joined a mentoring programme for 3 months organised by NOD, I had the chance to be mentored by Bruno Guillore (Associate Director from Hofesh Shechter Dance Company.
