Welcome to my website—I'm thrilled you found your way here!

Since 2012, I've been deeply immersed in the dance scene, exploring various roles from performing and teaching to curating, researching, and producing dance. Each role offers a unique perspective, surprising me on a daily basis. Firmly believing in the potential of the moving body, I remain curious about exploring new paths. Dance allows me to do just that, challenging my perspectives and prompting new questions every day. I'm currently researching these questions through the phenomenon of kinaesthetic empathy and the body's role as a communicator in our increasingly digitalized world.

In my approach to any aspect of my work, I'm drawn to collaborative processes that push the boundaries of what we think we know—toward alternative ways of creating, producing, and sharing dance. Deeply rooted in the dance world, I see myself as a small part of the broader dance ecosystem and our larger environment. Consequently, I believe in contributing to each other’s processes, fostering a nurturing environment where we can grow sustainably and equitably, side by side, yet intertwined in our love for some bold moves both on and off the dance floor.

I proudly serve as the co-founder and dramaturg of the Salzburg-based dance company Selva under the artistic direction of Rosana Ribeiro. Starting in 2024, I'll take on the role of curator for the PerformDance Festival in Salzburg.
