AERIALIST

In 2012, I became a student of the static trapeze. Since then, I have performed a variety of routines on the static trapeze in 10 shows. I have participated in circus shows at Oakland, California’s Kinetic Art Center, Emeryville’s Athletic Playground and Rockridge (Oakland) Out and About:

Several of these performances featured characters I created, including Shiny Happy, Biker Dude and most notably, Ms. Victory Jaronda, a drag character. These characters, along with several others have taken on a life of their own.
