With a foundation in musical theatre education and creative leadership, I began my journey at iMusical as a dance teacher and choreographer, working with junior performers in group settings. I collaborated closely with vocal coaches, focusing on storytelling through movement and character work. My strengths in staging and rehearsal direction were quickly recognized, and I took on broader responsibilities—coordinating rehearsals, tracking progress, and liaising between students, artistic leadership, and the production team.
