Riley Brown began dancing at age 10 at Kimberly’s School of Dance and South Florida Dance Company, while also performing with Port St. Lucie High School’s Dance Department. Along the way, they were introduced to Tasha Patterson Shirley and Wings to Fly Dance Company, where Tasha and Tara have played a pivotal role in their growth as a performer.

Now, almost 10 years later, Riley is a proud member of Wings to Fly Dance Company, finding great joy in dancing alongside friends with different abilities. It’s incredibly fulfilling to help make their dreams of performing on stage a reality—something many of them never thought possible.

In addition to dance, Riley works locally as a registered nurse in the Neonatal ICU, another passion that continues to inspire them.
