With a BFA in Dance and a career spanning decades as a professional dancer, Emily has performed, choreographed, and cast for some of the industry’s most prestigious projects, including the FIFA World Cup and other large-scale productions.
Her journey through the dance world was defined through extraordinary highlights, including performing with Sting, Camila Cabello and Kelly Clarkson on the worlds most prestigious stages.
