About me

Industry Arts
Occupation Executive Director
Location Moscow, Idaho, United States
Introduction I am the Executive Director of Festival Dance & Performing Arts, a large and active non-profit organization. Our mission is to bring the arts to the people and the people to the arts. We believe our area deserves the best in the performing arts, and therefore, we provide world class performances that would otherwise not be available here. We bring in the only professional dance series between Seattle and Minneapolis! We touch the lives of 5,000 young people each year by having those world class performers/artists stay one more night and present an educational school show at the WSU Beasley Coliseum the day after the public performance. For many rural children, this is a once in a lifetime experience. We maintain five dance academies that serve Idaho cities; Moscow, Lewiston, Genesee, Troy, Orofino, and now Lapwai, providing high quality dance courses with many performance opportunities. We achieve our mission everyday and have been since 1972!
Interests Use the word 'impossible' with the greatest caution. I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve (or save) the world, and a desire to enjoy (or savor) the world. This makes it hard to plan the day. :o) I'm interested in Dance. Golf. Books. People. Business. Marketing. Dance. Politics. Fashion. Performance. Dance. Art. Fly fishing. Education. Mountain Air. Fall leaves. Dance.

Why doesn't everyone dance?
