Constance is a NJ native who is currently pursuing her Masters in Dance at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Her unique style is the result of over 20 years of experience in a variety of dance genres/experiences ranging from Modern, Middle Eastern forms, nightlife entertainment, improvisation, and styles based in Africanist aesthetics.
Constance’s choreographic work interrogates the grey area of preconceived notions and popular truths versus personal realities. She strives to marry her knowledge of how to make dances for the proscenium, her fascination with uncanny narratives, and a love for film to construct a collection of multimedia vignettes to be primarily presented in nightlife establishments and other alternative performance spaces.
