At age 16 she was touring with the 3rd Army's Holiday Show appearing all across the East and South. Deanna attended East Carolina University majoring in drama and psychology.

She has choreographed for touring companies and for the Smithsonian Museum's Theatre on the Mall. She has danced in nightclubs and dinner theaters throughout the country. She studied with world famous teachers Matt Maddox, Gus Giordano, Phil Black, Margaret Craske, and Luigi.
She started teaching when she was 20 opening her own studio in NC. Later, after college and a professional career she returned to her own studio business in Virginia. This studio grew by leaps and bounds and expanded to 3 locations. These studios were full to overflowing for years.
During these years Deanna also taught in Day Care Schools and private Schools to augment her studio income and to get new students introduced to dance. She created Danc'eM an age appropriate dance program which she used personally in her schools in Colorado and now sells to other dance schools and around the country.
From 1999 to 2001 she created the five ballet syllabuses with music by June Olson. These syllabuses have 36 lesson plans for September through May for Beginners through Advanced ballet technique.
Since beginning Danc'eM Deanna has tried to create music and syllabuses to help teachers improve their classroom teaching and give them more variety in the classroom. Now we are offering three 9 month Tap Programs, A 9 month Toddler Program, a 9 month Creative Movement Program, a 9 Month Beginner Jazz program called Barbie Jazz and a 9 month Theatre for Tots program with a Pre- Ballet 9 month program coming in the summer of 2009.
