About Me

I am fun and passionate. I have direction and purpose; I know what I want from life and I am having fun striving towards my life goals. I find the fun in everything I do. Life is good. I see myself as a whole person, a leader, fun to be around. I know my limitations, and push them often. I always strive to better myself, physically, mentally, and spiritually. The thing I hate most is an unteachable spirit. I am honest and caring. I expect honesty and respect from those around me. I love helping others find a confidence within themselves, which they never knew was there. When your passion is your job, can you really consider it work?

[[File:[]As a life-long Mandeville resident, I played soccer and earned a black belt in TKD (MKTC). I graduated in December 2005 from Southeastern Louisiana University (SLU) with a B.A. in Entrepreneurship, then I began working full-time for Latter & Blum Realtors, inc. I left Latter and Bloom to focus all my attention on Mandeville Ballroom, llc.

How I got into Social Dance: I began dancing as a Sophomore in college. A family friend told me that her daughter taught dancing locally, so I went. I immediately fell in love with the different dances and the social freedom they afforded me. I subsequently began a club at SLU: the Southeastern Swing Dance Club, SDC for short. I really wanted to practice more often and I also wanted to share my love of ballroom dancing with others. I was, soon after, recruited on the board of directors for the United States Amateur Ballroom Dancers' Association (USABDA). Additionally, I also assisted with the Highschool dance clubs (MHS, FHS). Now, my mission is to spread the love of social dance throughout the Northshore, and to provide dancers with a safe, alcohol-free venue to learn and practice new skills. I currently continue to improve my dance skills through lessons, workshops and private instruction from nationally and internationally recognized instructiors and coaches. taken from MandevilleBallroom.com
