I own and rock people’s faces off teaching ballroom dancing at Dancers Studio in St. Paul, MN. My husband and I compete professionally in American style and wrangle eight children in our spare time. I’ve been teaching and competing in ballroom dancing for over 25 years and have lots of opinions on it. I am an expert by any means, but there are quite a few dancers who are better than me and I have a solid knowledge of basic technique, so suck it.

Self Portrait

WHY can't I find a decent picture of myself?  Every year, when I'm asked to judge this local dance competition, the organizers ask me for a photo and a bio.

Blurg.

Every year, I scan through my iPhoto library, then my Facebook account, then I Google myself and I find NOTHING!  Well, nothing with my mouth closed (am I really constanting yelling/talking/eating? the answer is yes)…

jazz hands
and nothing with my eyes open (apparently I'm very sleepy… when I'm dancing)…

challenge line
and nothing where I'm doing an impression of a normal person (the word "dorky" comes to mind).

tango face

I also notice a lot of jazz hands…

I'm a giant

But I like that this one came up in my Google search…

slappin' some fool

How did Google know I like to slap fools in the face?  Ah, Googs, you know me so well.
