NINA WILSON
Performer
Nina Wilson was first exposed to dance as a young girl when her Grandmother ritually brought her to the ballet. Desiring to be on the other side of the curtain she began training in modern techniques, improvisation and ballet.
​
After High School Nina kept pursuing dance professionally. She has worked with a number of professional companies as an apprentice including Missouri Contemporary Ballet, Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre and Phoenix Rising Dance Company. She also participated in many training programs including two years at the Lines Ballet Training Program in San Francisco (2017-2019) and summer intensives such as the American Dance Festival, San Francisco Conservatory of Dance, Big Muddy Dance Company and Ate9. Through these endeavors she has been privileged to work with renowned artists, performing works by Lindsey Matheis, Christian Burns, Alex Ketley, Courtney Mazeika, Maurya Kerr and Marissa Brown.
In recent years Nina has found a growing curiosity for choreography. She plans to seek out opportunities to share her own work and grow in that skill set.
Nina is thrilled to have found a home at Oquirrh West Project. This is her third season with the company.
