About

Krista’s career started as a contemporary dancer, often performing in works defined as dance theatre, site-specific or improvisation based.  Her creative curiosity took her to collaborate in projects outside the contemporary dance scene and led her working as a Creative more broadly across the performing arts industry such as theatre, music theatre, circus and performance art sectors to name a few. 

 

 

Krista is an incredible experienced movement director who has worked for Frantic Assembly for over 10 years. Krista has worked as a co-director for Frantic and also co-run our highest level of public training for artists as well as training new practitioners. Her ability to effortlessly command a room combined with her extensive knowledge and creativity allows her to create meaningful, innovative and exciting work.
