Hola! Welcome to my online CV.

I am a trained dancer from Melbourne, Australia, who has been living near Playa Del Carmen, Mexico since December 2011. As of today, (07/07/12), I have finished a dance contract with the Grand Sirenis Hotel, Riviera Maya, and am looking forward to new job prospects as a dancer and/or choreographer. Unfortunately, I had an unfortunate mishap with my beloved Macbook and a Mexican thunderstorm, and am now trying to piece together a new resume/CV to send to potential employers. I feel that, considering that I am constantly on the move, the most effective portrayal of my evolving skills and experiences will be in blog-form. Through this site, I plan to submit up-to-date photos, videos, and information from where I am, what I am doing/learning, and what I want to do next. To all my potential employers, I hope that you enjoy this refreshingly different, (or seemingly unorthodox), method of application. Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions or invitations for auditions, work opportunities, etc. I am open to any experience and will jump at the chance to try something new, anywhere in the world.

Thanks for coming!
I might just see you soon....
