Chiara started her swing dance journey while living abroad in Seoul, Korea. Having studied classical harp since age seven, she instantly fell in love with Lindy Hop as a new way to express herself.

She loves performing with the Someday Sweethearts and Swing or Nothing. She spends her time practicing, performing, and working part-time as an ESL instructor (while attending graduate school).

Chiara wants her students to learn to express themselves musically through the dance along with giving them a solid technical foundation. Chiara hopes to inspire her students to work hard and reach their goals while having fun.
