Making Southern California her new home, she embraced the art of dance and excelled in both ballet and jazz. Although professionally trained for many years in various forms of dance, including modern, lyrical and hip hop, it was not until 2001, at the age of 21, that she emerged onto the LA salsa scene. Her style quickly garnered her recognition as one of the top female dancers in Southern California. Although she desires to present an elegant style of salsa as her trademark, her dancing has also been referred to as a fusion of graceful motion and explosive energy. Admired by many for her warm personality and exceptional dancing skills, she quickly became one of the most recognizable personalities on the club circuit. Her outstanding teaching skills also make her a favorite among salsa students at establishments such as the Mayan and Conga Room. Coveted by many of the salsa scene's best male dancers to train as dance partners, she has chosen to dance with salsa veterans such as Alex da Silva and Solomon Rivera. She went on to capture her first major salsa dance championship at the Mayan World Salsa Championships in the summer of 2002. The momentum of her early success lead to commercials and music video appearances, as well as opportunities to choreograph for television and motion pictures. Liz has recently had the honor of choreographing the semi-finals and finals routines in Dancing With the Stars, Season 8, 9 and 10 and So You Think You Can Dance. She was also choreographer and principal dancer for the feature film, The Ugly Truth, starting Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigl. In December of 2010, she won first place in the salsa On 1 division at the World Latin Dance Cup and was crowned Ultimate Latin Dance Champion, making her a 9-time World Salsa Champion and 7-time US Salsa Champion.
