My years at Dance Theatre of Harlem working under Arthur Mitchell were some of the most incredible experiences I've ever had. DTH impacted the Ballet community and the world by showing that we of the African Diaspora could not only succeed in this European art form, but Shine! Many of us that have come out of DTH are new Company directors, School Directors, Choreographers, and published authors! I am now Master Ballet Teacher/Choreographer teaching at schools and academies in Atlanta, Georgia.
