Nicole West studied at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois where she attained a Bachelor of Science in Dance from the School of Communications. Providing teachers whom direct companies all over Chicago, Nicole's training included a full breadth of styles from tap and african to ballet and contact improvisation. Nicole was also fortunate to be assistant choreographer for a new work set on Luna Negra Dance Theatre which premiered in Spring of 2008, as well as having studied with the Paul Taylor School, David Parker, Jan Bartoszek, Billy Siegenfeld, Molly Shanahan, Laura Wade, and Joseph Mills. Nicole is looking forward to being challenged as a performer in her work ethic and quality. She is looking forward to working with the commissioned choreographers and the touring season.
