Director and Founder of the Greenwich Performing Arts Studio, Michelle made her television debut at age nine in a Tropicana Orange Juice commercial. While continuing her professional career, she received a BFA from Boston Conservatory of Music in Dance and Drama. As a dancer she performed throughout Europe and the USA. On her return to the USA she had the distinct honor of becoming Joanne Woodwards private ballet teacher for 3 years after which, she began her career as a choreographer with the National Shakespeare Company in NYC. She continued to perform touring with the American Dance Machine and acting in Soap Operas. The latter led to Michelle’s selection as the first permanent choreographer of Daytime Dramas and allowed her to work with such outstanding performers as BeBe Neuwirth and Susan Stroman. Her work can be seen in commercials, on television and in industrials. Michelle has been teaching all levels of Theater Arts for the last decade in Greenwich.
