Humans are multi-faceted, and my public life as an internationally-acclaimed belly dance performer and teacher is one component that I have dedicated more than 3 decades of my life too and I love how dance and music is so powerful .
However, I am also an advocate for Community, Carers, Women in business and an entrepreneur.
These differing parts of my life are as diverse as humanity itself, and each one has a special place in my heart.
Learning, growing, expanding our experiences, and being a positive influence in people’s lives makes me happy, and you are most welcome to contact me if you have any questions.
