Vanessa Oswald

I’m a writer and dancer from the Buffalo, New York region who has traveled to New York City seeking new opportunities. I started dancing at the age of three and have continued to dance throughout high school, college and currently run my own dance business Danceamour in my hometown. I teach classes of various genres including Hip-Hop, Modern, Jazz and Breakdancing, while I have other instructors who teach Ballet, Burlesque and Acro. Prior to running my own business I also taught at select studios in the upstate New York area, which include Spirit Of Dance Studio, Jeannie’s Dance Connection and Jaclyn Carol’s Dance Academy. Over the years I’ve been a featured dancer in the Tanzen Dance Company and Moné Dance Company. A few of the festivals I’ve danced in with these groups are the Elmwood Festival, MusicIsArt Festival, Peach Festival and Italian Festival. Along with my involvement in dance I also love to write on the subject. I received a bachelor’s degree in Journalism from The College at Brockport in 2010. Since graduating I have been promoted to a full-time staff writer at RTT News where I write and edit stories on entertainment, music and health news. I also freelance for several Buffalo area publications, such as Artvoice, Thrive Magazine, Niagara Gazette and Tonawanda News. I’m currently writing for the Brooklyn-based Resource Magazine as an intern, while also freelancing for CentralPark.com.
