I make interdisciplinary dance works. Many integrate objects, place and sensorial stuff. My collaborators vary from project to project, and my process involves wide-ranging research and both serious and silly play.
My work, the institute for folding is a cardboard choreography of human knowledge, neglect and wonder, and is under development as the 2025 Vermont Dance Alliance Resident Artist project. My project forecasts and findings is a work for grain, bodies, burlap and sound, premiering in February 2025. Other past works have included dances choreographed to oral histories of immigration, a pageant set in an apple orchard, and a dance iteration of Foucault’s Corps Utopique.
Alongside my dance projects, I fancy writing about historical pageantry and embodied cognition, and I work as the Director of External Affairs at the Hopkins Center for the Arts at Dartmouth. I am honored to sit (and move) on the board of advisors of The Field Center in Rockingham, VT, and I have served on the board of the Society of Dance History Scholars (now Dance Studies Association). I live with my family in Putney, VT.
