Brittany Denman
Employer
My current employer is Susan Ledbetter at Susan's Studio of Dance as a teacher, and choreographer. I also teach workshops at dance studios in the central Arkansas area. I am currently working with the Sheridan High School dance team, choreographing their competitive jazz dance.
Career Objectives
I am a graduate of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock with a BFA in dance performance. I plan to continue to choreograph at the dance studio where I work for as long as I am living in Arkansas. I want to judge dance competitions to help me reach my goal of working my way into the choreography world. I also want to teach at a performing arts high school. This would help me get my name out there, but more importantly share my love of dance with a new generation.
