@whathappenedtogod NYFW SS25 // INDIGO CHILDREN
such an honor to be a part of this show. thank you @saturnislove and @ankinayak_ for bringing me in and trusting me with your vision 🙏🏽
this experience reminded me why I came to New York. To work with so many talented artists was such a dream, and I loved the challenge of integrating dance with runway
Big thank you to my community for continuing to uplift me and be my biggest source of support on this journey. I’m beyond grateful ❤️

My first teacher, @tanya_thanawa , thanks for letting me on your team in 2013 😭 You’re truly the reason I’m dancing today, I was just a girl walking into a @strictlyfunk audition with my soccer shorts, learning your Lana Del Ray piece, not realizing how dance would be my whole life 12 years later. Being in this class gave me chillss thinking back to freshman year learning so much from you🥲. LOVED loved being your student again. Throwback to the Lin 🫶🏾 Best biggest ever and so inspired by you ❤️
Seeing my @strictlyfunk fam and @grooveagainstthemachine fam collab is so delicious 😍 Catch @shivlambda x @tanya_thanawa in their Round 2 next week!!!!

IMGE by @_malcolmlittle
At the top of the year I had the opportunity to create new branding imagery for my favorite company, @imgedance . They are currently gearing up for their residency through CUNY Dance Initiative for two performances Feb 14th & 15th at Tribeca Performing Arts Center. It’s an honor to collaborate and create with such innovative, talented movers and performers. More images can be found on @imgedance page.
