Jaime is a lifelong contributor to the arts as a dancer and choreographer, and she brings her love for music and theatre to her role as Executive Director of Tapestry Opera. Following the completion of her Master's degree in Dunedin, New Zealand, she co-founded the Aha Dance Collective, a contemporary dance company dedicated to exploring gender and movement through a feminist lens. From 2013-2016, Jaime served as Director of Operations for Pride Toronto, steering one of the the largest LGBTQ celebrations in the world. In 2014, she was officially commended by the City of Toronto for her contribution to WorldPride, called a "historic and overwhelming success". Jaime believes deeply in the power of art to transform lives and the world that surrounds them. She is committed to furthering Tapestry's mandate to challenge structures, invest in new art in a way that reaches emerging artists, and carve out space at the edges of the mainstream, where creative disruption lives.
