B.A. in Literature, Reed College; M.A. in Choreography and Performance, UCLA.
"It is a joy teaching movement development; dance education; and ways of incorporating dance into the classroom to teachers, educators, and future teachers for over 30 years. I have also enjoyed sharing creative movement experiences with hundreds of pre-schools and elementary school classrooms in the Los Angeles area."
