With an avid entrepreneurial spirit, the performing arts company “Movement 340: A Passion Through Every Step” is Elle’s current up-and-coming business. Building back communities through the creative and influential forces of performing arts. Movement 340 is just what the name entitles a “movement”. It is a progressive outlet that will allow an ascending growth and population of the performing arts community in the Virgin Islands. The heart of this organization beats to the sound of positivity displayed through mentorship and a significant love of self and your surrounding environment. One must keep a certain pride in which you hailed from.

With that being said, the movement starts with planting flowers of ancestral commemoration using the performing arts to preserve a melting pot of an enriched heritage, and then assists with weeding out the skyrocketing scenarios consistently occurring in the territories such as the various types of violence, drugs, political tension, healthcare deficiencies, job shortages, and the lack of funding within the branches of government.

The Virgin Islands produces a plethora of raw talent and Movement 340 pledges to be a safe house where that talent will be embraced and fully utilized to enhance that individual. Movement 340 pledges to be a trustworthy beacon where that talent will be able to shine not only locally but worldwide making the seed of a dream a beautiful living reality.

Elle has also been afforded the profound opportunity of traveling abroad to various parts of Europe, Asia, Africa, and inter-regional Caribbean islands through the pursuits of dance and academia. Harriet Tubman said, “every great dream begins with a dreamer, always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world”. Wholeheartedly, she has embraced that philosophy through her relentless passion, which is the dream of dance excellence.
