Alyssa hails from Roberts, Wisconsin where she began dancing, and competing her first solo, at the young age of 2. She began training at Larkin Dance Studio in Maplewood, Minnesota in middle school where she competed in teams, small groups, productions and solos at regional and national competitions in all styles of dance. In 2016, Alyssa was a member of the team that helped her studio to Studio of the Year distinction. In her time at the studio, she had the privilege of working with several high-level choreographers including Travis Wall, Kirsten Russell, Bobby Newberry and Mia Michaels.
Alyssa then took her talents to Columbus, Ohio where she earned a spot as a student-athlete on Ohio State’s varsity dance team from 2016-2019. In this time, she helped her program to its first national title. In her three years on the tram, she won three national championships while performing at university athletic events and acting as an ambassador in the community. Alyssa was also selected to assist with choreography for several team pieces including game day routines and the 2018 home routine to Bleeding Love. She graduated from The Ohio State University in 2020 with a B.A. in Journalism and again in 2021 with a M.S. in Sport Management. She has continued to consult with and choreograph for several high school dance teams and studios. She moved to Colorado Springs in 2021 where she works as a Communications and Marketing Coordinator for USA Artistic Swimming.
