Founder/Artistic Director/ Resident Choreographer (Philadelphia, PA)

“ASH (Contemporary Dance) has a mix that puts the fuse in fusion.”

Philadelphia’s City Paper

“Modern Jazz Dance comes alive in an interesting new artistic climate with Artists. Simply. Human.”

Around Philly Magazine

“ASH (Contemporary Dance) overlaps genres – broadway, tap, en pointe, creating a new pocket in modern dance; softer than typical contemporary companies but emotionally captivating nonetheless.”

Philadelphia Weekly

“Nothing seemed to be abstract or experimental simply for the sake of being so.  The accessibility of ASH (Contemporary Dance)’s work was a pleasant surprise.”
