I am an emerging choreographer and soon-to-be graduate of Skidmore College, currently developing new work through the ChoreoLab Residency this summer as I begin my transition into freelance choreography.

I am honored to receive a stipend through ChoreoLab that supports my participation in the residency process. However, I am seeking additional funding to expand the scale of this project and, most importantly, to fairly support the dancers who are joining me in this work.

Funds Raised Will Support:

Dancer stipends for rehearsal, residency participation, and performances
Costuming and materials for the development and presentation of the work
Travel support for rehearsals and festival participation
Studio Rental & Production Costs

About the Project

ChoreoLab is a multi-phase creative residency taking place in Vermont this summer. The work is built through collaborative rehearsal, physical research, and performance development, culminating in public presentations.

Performances will take place at the end of the residency on June 27th and will be presented again at the Junction Dance Festival in White River Junction, VT on July 18th.

As an emerging artist, this project is a key step in developing my choreographic voice and building a sustainable, community-based creative practice.

Why Your Support Matters

This project already has institutional support through my ChoreoLab stipend, but additional funding allows me to extend that support outward—toward the dancers who are actively shaping the work with me.

Your contribution directly impacts how many artists can be fairly included and how sustainably this work can be made.

Every donation helps move this project closer to a model of dance-making that values collaboration and compensates artistic labor more equitably.

Thank you for supporting this work, these dancers, and the early stages of my choreographic practice.
