Community Engagement Coordinator/Class Assistant
Gab began dancing when they were 3 years old and hasn’t stopped since then! They’ve danced (and taught!) many styles, but gravitate toward ballet, hip hop, modern, jazz. Fostering a strong community among B&B dancers is very important to Gab, which is why they love being our Community Engagement Coordinator. Finding innovative ways to engage folx in and out of classes so that everyone feels a bit more connected to each other and to Baltimore is their ultimate goal. While not working with the B&B crew, they are one of the Founding Partners of a local educational cooperative, Bmore Transform, and the Membership and Space Manager of a social impact-focused coworking space, Impact Hub.
