After dancing for world renowned companies like the Houston Ballet and the Pacific Northwest Ballet, Barry made the transition into the life of a freelance dancer. Moving back to his roots on the east Coast, Barry began a blog to document his new life as a freelancer which led to jobs, teaching opportunities, a podcast, and a unique voice in the dance community.
