Elevator pitch. Describe yourself in a nutshell (or sea shell, or any shell for that matter).

Rogue choreographer with a penchant for creating dances with people from all walks of life.

Why did you pursue what you’re doing now? What was the inspiration?

I love dance and dancing, and I wanted to see and experience more of the world…so I started to use my life in dance as a way to do this.

What is the best part of your day-to-day?

Going in the studio and moving.

What’s the most challenging?

Not going in the studio and moving….

If you took a look in the cliché crystal ball, what do you see for yourself?

A passport filled with entry stamps and visas from working all over the world.

How do you embrace disruption in your work and personal life? 

If we accept we are striving for perfection, we must accept that we are incomplete and in a constant process of attaining this, therefore we must live happily and embrace disruption as an essential part of the process of ‘getting there’.

What is the most memorable moment in your career?

Premiering a tribute to my father, a Requiem for sailors in WWII (Convoy PQ 17) with symphony orchestra, chorus, and hundreds of veterans in attendance in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
