Liz Sexe is the choreographer/artistic director of Liz Sexe Dance Company established in 2014.

Her choreographic work has been featured at the World Dance Alliance Festival in Honolulu, Hawaii, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Danceworks in Milwaukee, WI, and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin in Spring Green, WI. She was an artist in residenceUniversity of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and the Bubbler at Madison’s Central Library.
