From a young age, Michelle was part of a performance-based dance company in Maryland, where she was trained in jazz, hip-hop, ballet, and tap. She was a captain of her high school's competitive dance team; and in college, she joined a performance-based hip-hop team, called EnCore. While in college, Michelle also helped to lead members of her sorority, Sigma Delta Tau, in a few dance performances. Since graduating from the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business in 2011, Michelle has worked in the asset management industry in New York City. This is her 16th season dancing with DanceWorks, and it is her 6th season choreographing. She is incredibly grateful for the life-long friends she has made through the DanceWorks community and is very excited to share her vision this season, a DanceWorks wedding! Let’s dance the night away as we celebrate the special couple on their special day. <3
