During her time at Cornish, she earned her certification in Pilates Mat under the direction of Michele Miller. While in Seattle, Molly kept her ties to Colorado by performing with Boulder Jazz Dance Workshop’s resident company Boulder Jazz Dance Collective, formally known as, Interweave Dance Theatre, who she still performs with. Molly now lives in Colorado where she is a member of Rogue Co. Dance Company. She is also teaching at local studios and is enjoying the opportunity to work with dancers of all ages. Molly loves the emotion and storytelling aspect of dance, as this is what fuels her dancing and current work.
