Mimi began her classical ballet training at the age of 4 and graduated from K&Kei Ballet Art in 2016. She holds a BA in Performing Arts from the University of South Australia and is currently an Honours research student in Creative Arts (Virtual Reality and Dance) at Adelaide University.
Since graduating from K&Kei Ballet Art, she has performed internationally with various companies including Fever and others. As a freelance performer she has appeared across corporate and government events.
She founded Adelaide Sakura Troupe in 2022 and continued working as an independent artist. She had long felt there needed to be a space for dancers who fall outside the mainstream. In 2024 she co-founded Ballet Rogue with Iita Drakard to make that happen.
