DANCER | PERFORMER

Delivering captivating performances both on stage and on screen

Hello – I’m Moira!

… a seven-time national dance champion and performer with over a decade of stage experience. I’m a Switzerland based performer specializing in dance, musical theatre, acting, singing and modeling.

I have a great passion for performing both live and in front of the camera. Besides creating my own work and teaching I strive to share my love of the arts with the world.

This year, a dream of mine came true with my nomination for the Broadway Dreams Showcase, taking place in New York City this November, just three blocks from Broadway.

Recently, I performed as an ensemble member in the musical «The Copyright Girl», directed by Benjamin Fröhlich.

Beyond theater, I’ve worked in film and television, including Swiss Radio and Television (SRF), where I was a semifinalist on «Die grössten Schweizer Talente». I have also performed as a background dancer for Luca Hänni and have danced and choreographed for music videos with artists such as Jenny Kaufmann, Chilla Effekt and Ricky Leroy Brown.

My Bachelor of Science in Sport, Health and Exercise enhances both my performances and teaching, helping me bring a deep understanding of movement, physicality and wellness to my work as an artist and educator.
