Trina was born in the San Francisco Bay Area and began taking dance lessons from her mother at the age of 3 1/2. Her mom, Katie (the owner of Katie's Dance Studio and Company in El Cerrito) taught her many different styles and to not only be a dancer but a performer. Trina danced in fairs, rest homes, street fairs, and every other show she could get her hands on. Through this constant performing she was able to grow as a dancer.
After Trina graduated from Hawaii Pacific University, with a degree in Psychology and a full scholarship from being a part of their dance team, she decided to move to the Los Angeles area. She went on to dance at Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure for three years and did many industrials with them. As a member of the touring company, VeggieTales Live! she traveled throughout the United States. She then toured internationally with Disney Latin America for "A Christmas Fantasy". Her most thrilling professional dancing experience was dancing professionally for Carnival Cruise Lines. She not only had a fantastic time cruising around the ocean but she got to do what she loves best, dance. Recently she has performed with Sam Hui, the "Elvis" of China in the Bay Area and Atlantic City.
Trina loves being the Director of Broadway Rhythm and has greatly enjoyed these years of teaching her students to shine. She wishes everyone could experience the same joy she receives in teaching the art of dance.
