I am a dancer, choreographer, and cultural organizer based in Maastricht, the Netherlands. I have experience in talent development and audience accessibility. During my thirteen years with SALLY Dansgezelschap Maastricht I worked to make dance accessible to younger audiences. I currently teach at Toneelacademie (performing arts academy) in Maastricht. I co-direct and co-curate COORDINATE Festival in Calcata, Italy, an initiative that deliberately moves dance out of major cities into rural communities and reaches audiences with little access to culture through partnerships like Amici dei Bimbi ETS.
My curatorial practice is rooted in asking: how do we make dance truly accessible, not as adaptation, but as reimagined experience? This question has led me to explore how dance can be experienced fully by blind and visually impaired audiences, a direction I'm pursuing with the artist Mireia Varón Gallofré.
