Originally from Tyler, Texas, Liz began dancing in 2004 at just 5 years old at a small studio called Star Dance, which soon after became The School of Ballet Tyler. Liz stayed with Ballet Tyler until its voluntary dissolution in 2012, the same year she joined OnStage Dance Academy under the direction of Patti Thompson Patterson. Graduating from high school in 2017, Liz attended Tyler Junior College and received her Associate of Arts degree in Dance in 2019. That same year, she moved to Denton to attend Texas Woman’s University, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Dance Studies in 2022. Liz’s 20 years of training include extensive study in ballet (including pointe!), modern and contemporary dance, tap, and jazz—with two or more performances each year, from annual recitals to full-scale productions. Liz began teaching in 2020, and has taught many classes of all ages. She is excited to continue her career and grow with Davis Dance!
