Bailemos Dance Studio teaches dance to children and adults, from preschool beginners to competitive dancers, with a main studio in Quincy and a campus in Newton. Classes cover ballroom, Latin, ballet, acro and other styles, and the studio also runs summer camp and dance programs in schools. It operates under Boston Global Dance Education and connects students with an international dance community through an annual international dance festival, aiming to build independence, self-control and creativity.

She earned a dance degree from Salem State University, danced with the MIT Ballroom team and Repertory Dance Theatre, and taught all five ballroom and social styles at Dance Republic in Boston.
