ABOUT
At 4 years old, Tess started her dance career crying in the corner of the dance studio being bribed to stay with the promise of a milkshake after class. Since then, she has danced at studios throughout Maryland before moving to New Jersey for college. She currently teaches dance at the Madison Area YMCA and is a member of Extensions Dance Project! By day, Tess is an environmental scientist where she spends most days outside remediating sites in and around New Jersey. Tess is extremely thrilled to bring her experience in the dance and fitness industries to the Jane DO community!!
