Hi friends!
So clearly it's been two months now since I sent my last newsletter out--my apologies, my travels kept me much busier than I had hoped but I will try and be better about staying in touch from here on out! Here's what's new in my world:
This Sunday I'm very excited to be a part of the cast for Manipulation, a prop-based theatrical presentation by Master Ong's Prop Shop. This is a project that reminds me quite a lot of the Flow Show, one of my favorite yearly events, and will feature a roster of some of the most incredible prop performers on the West Coast, including Bags and Valentina, Cassie McKenney, Justin Widmar, and many more! Even more exciting, my partner Morgan and I will be debuting a brand new poi duet that we can't wait to show off.
Tickets are available here: http://www.masterongspropshop.com/event/86-manipulation-theater.html
Curious about the latest goings-on in the Flow Arts world? Every month I post a video featuring five of the highlights from the past month, including jugglers, hoopers, fan spinners, poi spinners, and everything else under the rainbow! Make sure to subscribe to my channel on YouTube for the latest news in the world of the flow arts.

I'm pleased to be returning to PEX Summer Festival to perform as part of the Russian Roulette Variety Show for the fourth straight year. Russian Roulette takes the most dynamic and creative fire artists on the East Coast and pulls them together for an unforgettable night of performances. PEX Summer Festival is a fun hybrid of an electronic music festival coupled with a Burning Man-inspired event that has art, music, performance, and fun workshops to attend during the day. There's something for everyone, so please come join us at Ramblewood!
