2. **Artist Statement:**

   As a choreographer, my work is a reflection of my deep-seated belief in the power of movement to convey emotions that words often fail to express. Through a blend of dance and storytelling, I strive to create performances that resonate on a personal and universal level, inviting audiences into a shared emotional experience. In every choreographic endeavor, I am committed to fostering an inclusive space that celebrates diversity and challenges preconceptions, allowing movement to transcend boundaries and connect us all.
