Michelle grew up on Kauai and developed a love for performing at an early age. She could be found showing off to anyone who would watch, be it at a hotel pool, local parade, recital or for her family. Michelle's dance training began with a brief tryst with hula followed by a long lasting love affair with ballet, jazz, ballroom and recently circus arts. On Kauai she trained with Janie Crane, Michelle Cole, Mary Hour, and the Kauai Performing Arts Center. She has also choreographed for Hawaii Children's Theatre, KPAC, and taught dance at Club Med. When Michelle is not busy being a goddess, she works as a digital media teacher at Kapaa High School. She is thrilled to work at Luau Kalamaku. “This is the most amazing luau I have ever seen! I am awed by the talent of both the cast and creators and haven't gotten tired of watching it yet.”
