Constance-Marie Kim is of Japanese, French, and Korean descent. After her BFA studies in Modern Dance/Ballet at the North Carolina School of the Arts, Constance moved to New York, danced professionally, and toured internationally. She feels privileged to have worked with some of her dream dancers and choreographers (Pina Bausch, Mikhail Baryshnikov). Constance then returned to her first love- acting. She feels fortunate to work in film and television, doing what she loves. She created, wrote, and is featured in the comedy series, *arts & leisure*. She writes, records, and performs music as Lucy Peru. Whenever she can, she works with nonprofits to bring arts education to children in underserved communities across the globe. She credits the arts for saving her life. She still loves dance, so she leaps over a fence every now and then.
