Ebony developed a love of dance at a very early age after training throughout her childhood in ballet, tap, jazz, and pointe. Ebony attended UNC-Chapel Hill and received her B.A. degree in African American Studies. While at UNC-Chapel Hill, Ebony was part of the High Kickin' Heels Dance Team, as well as the OPEYO! dancers. She served as choreographer for the semi-professional Durham Storm Cheerleaders in the late 1990s. Ebony also worked as an acrobatics and dance instructor in the Triangle and Triad area with Tap and Tumble. 

In 1998, Ebony joined the teaching staff at Brittany's Dance Studio in Chapel Hill. She continued to teach with Brittany and eventually served as assistant director until the studio closed its doors and relocated in 2005. Ebony also served as assistant director and master class instructor with The Dancer's Spotlight for several years.

In the fall of 2008, Ebony decided to start her own dance company, and this is where Chatham Dance Connection began. She started the program with about 25 students in a local after-school program and has seen the programs grow through the years. The studio is now housed in a cozy family-oriented studio in the heart of Pittsboro. Her love of children and dedication to quality dance education continues to be the heart of our dance program.
