Quincie Bean was raised in Utah and began dancing at the young age of three. She completed her pre-professional training at Provo Civic Ballet before relocating to Santa Fe to join Modas Dance’s year-round program under the direction of Layla Amis. In Santa Fe, she danced works by Robert Moses and Gail Gilbert. Her next move took her to Chicago where she danced for Cocodaco Dance Project, NOW Dance Project, and Cerqua Rivera Dance Theatre. Quincie later collaborated on projects for LED and Project Flux, both in Boise. Notable performances include Treefort Music Festival, Festival Prisma Danza, and Dance for Life in Chicago. She has performed works by Lauren Edson, David Maurice, Alex Ketley, and Garrett Smith, among others. Since joining NW Dance Project in 2021 she has danced works by Ihsan Rustem, Joseph Hernandez, Sarah Slipper, Caroline Finn, Yin Yue, and Bryan Arias, among others.
