Background

About Nicolette Pantaleo

My name is Nicolette Pantaleo and I am a professional dancer based out in the Las Vegas. I have trained in hip hop, jazz, waacking and Latin ballroom. In 2013, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Journalism and a Minor in Italian. I was on the Dean's List for three semesters and graduated with an advanced degree. Why Italian you may ask? Being half Italian I wanted to expand my knowledge of my heritage and in the summer of 2011 I studied abroad in Viterbo, Italy. Upon my return I began interning for Vegas Magazine under Greenspun Media and was there for one year. During this time, I freelanced for the Las Vegas Sun and then began my career in museums where I worked my way up the later to be the Development Assistant at The Neon Museum. In March of 2018, I took on a new journey of being an independent contractor in dance and have been a successful dancer, choreographer, director, and creator. I have accomplished some amazing goals such as being in two shows in Las Vegas including Salt n'Pepa's I Love The 90's Vegas Residency. Dancers are the hardest working people in the industry and the least paid. We always strive for perfection and have a very driven mindset. I am one of these hard working individuals who has received more no's than yes' and has not given up when times got hard and continue to do this everyday with everything I do.
