Fosse’s muse Tony Award Winner Ann Reinking. He had the pleasure of
assisting her in the creative process of bringing the Broadway
revival of CHICAGO to life. His ballet choreography
(co-choreographed with Academy Award Nominee and Former ABT

with rave reviews. He has also been the personal dance coach for Pop

“ONCE ON THIS ISLAND.”

acclaimed European Tour of "WEST SIDE STORY", "CABARET" and
"ANYTHING GOES." He had the pleasure of singing in the opening
number of Broadway Cares' “GYPSY OF THE YEAR” at Broadway’s Neil
Simon Theatre and dancing opposite of Ann Reinking for DRA's "ALL
THAT JAZZ."
