Sharon was born in Green Bay,
Wisconsin and started dancing when she
was 8 years old. Her Aunt got her a
semester of dance for a Christmas gift
and she has loved it ever since (Thanks
Krissi)! Sharon danced with Jelane's
Academy of Dance and Empire For The
Arts from the age 8 until she graduated
from high school at the age of 18. She
was involved in competitions and has
won overall high points in her junior and
senior years of dance. Sharon Started
assisting at the age of 14 and teaching at
the age of 15. While in high school she
was captain of the West De Pere Color
Guard and have also performed with the
Pamiro Opera at the Weidner Center with
the following shows; Hansel and Gretel,
The Italian Girl in Algiers, and The Lost
Dauphin. She is continually expanding
her dance knowledge by attending dance
conventions around the Mid West and is
always excited to pass on what she has
learned to her students. She was recently
awarded Best Choreography at 2 regional
competitions along with other special
choreography awards. Sharon enjoys
every aspect of dance and hopes to pass
the joy of dance onto all her students!
