Hi, and welcome to my blog! I’m Melanie, a soprano and dancer based in Brooklyn. After spending years trying to fit into the traditional opera soprano box, I decided to chart my own path. Now, I am merging my two loves - opera & dance - together in fun & unique ways!
This combo has taken me to some pretty cool places, and uprooted this Nebraska girl to the crazy world of Brooklyn. As I keep creating and exploring, I want to help singers dance, and help dancers sing.
Stay tuned here to get previews of my upcoming choreographic projects, life/career updates, & to get my musings on things I wish I had known before entering the real world of being a 21st century artist.
Welcome, and I’m so glad you are here!
-Melanie
