Monica is a multidisciplinary artist that specializes in aerial acrobatics and dance. Classically trained in ballet since the age of fourteen, she began her aerial journey in 2014, fusing together aerial and ballet making her known for her grace and poise in the air. 

While ballet is her forte, on the ground Monica is also trained in jazz and modern dance. She has most recently collaborated with SacDanceLab, Hip Service and Borne Dance Company in the Sacramento area. In the air she specializes in aerial silks, hammock, lyra and she enjoys the silver kisses of aerial chain. She captivates her audience creating a story through the use of musicality and dynamic movements, leaving them in awe as she splits in every which way possible. Her performances have enchanted audiences across a variety of venues including corporate events, weddings, nightclubs, festivals, museums and even backyard family get-togethers. Notable clients include the Crocker Art Museum, Wide Open Walls, Saint John’s Program, Napa Language Academy, and Rancho Victoria Vineyard. 

Monica has an insatiable thirst to continue growing as an artist and coach She currently lives in Sacramento, CA and when not performing you can catch her teaching in the community. She is pescatarian as well- almost full vegetarian so if you invite her to a steakhouse she will have to politely decline.
