Heather entered into the world of arts & entertainment through acting at a young age. She was able to work in Film & TV, Voice Over and Print while represented by Characters Talent Management in Vancouver. She soon found a deep connection to dance that led her to train with Arts Umbrella (Vancouver), L'Ecole Superieur de Danse du Quebec (Montreal), Goh Ballet Academy (Vancouver), where she learned Ballet, Flamenco, Chinese Fan Dancing, Russian Character Dance with Jazz & Modern. Heather performed full-length ballets touring with the Goh Ballet to China twice and France.

She immersed herself in street-style training (Popping, B-girling, House, Waacking, and vogueing) and participated in many choreography-focused research and development opportunities.
