creative director. dancer. human.

I am an Asian American creative and a follower of Jesus who believes in the transformative power of unconditional love. I am dedicated to serving people from all walks of life and positively shaping culture by capturing the human condition in dance and purpose-driven art.

Taryn is a dancer and choreographer under Jam Republic the Agency, GRV Dance Company, and formerly YGX in South Korea. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Taryn lived in Seoul from May 2022 - April 2025 working as a choreographer and dancer for renowned artists such as BLACKPINK, Taeyang, Jimin of BTS, and NCT. She was nominated in the Forbes 30 under 30 List in 2023 and won a VMA for Best Choreography for BLACKPINK's "Pink Venom." Continuously striving to create human-centered, purpose-driven art, Taryn is also branching out into the music industry as a singer and performing artist in her own right. 

Taryn is an artist who believes in the transformative power of purpose-driven work. By combining dance, music, film, and storytelling, her vision is to both empower individuals and also create dialogue surrounding culture, shared stories, systems of injustice, and human emotion. Growing up as a Taiwanese American in Los Angeles, Taryn struggled to feel fully seen or understood growing up. Her hope as an artist now is to provide younger generations with authentic creative role models to look toward.

She is a graduate of the University of Southern California, class of 2019, with a B.S. in Music Industry and a minor in Culture, Media, and Entertainment.
