Hi friends and family! As many of you know, I've spent the last four years pursuing an artistic career in NYC. The most recent of those years have been spent performing with and for friends, strengthening our dance community, and lots of training. I've held the same nannying job for the loveliest family for the past 3 years and have been serving at a cool vegan spot for almost 2 years.

I am SO full of gratitude for the growth and learning that has happened in my time in the city, and recently I've been feeling a bit stuck in my training and career. While I have a lot to be proud of in the past 4 years, I have so much I want to (and will) achieve as an artist and I feel that I don't yet have all of the foundational and historical knowledge to push my career forward.

Upon some soul searching, chatting with friends, and lots of encouragement from my most beloved partner, I'm excited to announce that I have been accepted to the Peridance Certificate Program with a concentration in commercial dance! This 2-year conservatory program includes training in all foundations of hip hop, jazz, and ballet, along with academic courses in dance history, composition, and stagecraft. I firmly believe this program holds the tools that will help me elevate my career in ways I am currently not equipped, all still in the community and culture of New York.

With a program as full as this comes a tuition just as full and this is where you, my beautiful friends and family, come in. I have supported myself financially during my time in the city and while I am confident in my ability to continue my self-support while in the program, its tuition adds a hefty load to my financial situation.

I am humbly and lovingly asking for your support in funding my tuition, and am enormously grateful for any and all contributions. I am more than happy to chat more about the program, my life in the city, or just to say hey, so please don't hesitate to reach out!

Love and gratitude,

Eddie <3
