Buffalo was once a national hotspot for performance arts, and with the recent resurgence of the city, the entertainment community is once again growing into prominence.

Currently she is a standing board member of Dance Days of Buffalo, a local foundation with a goal of developing the dance community, and dance performance opportunities for young performers.
