Anita graduated from Chartiers Valley High School. She attended West Virginia University on a scholarship as their Featured Twirler, but decided that it just wasn't for her. She returned home to continue her career as a dancer. Anita was very talented and was the Head Mistress and owner of Just Dance Conservatory. She danced with the Alvin Ailey Dance Theatre in New York. She later returned to Pittsburgh to dance with Point Park University and the Civic Light Opera. Anita's true passion, first and foremost, was the Lord Jesus Christ, for whom she lived a loving, caring, giving and dancing life. She had a fervor for dance and a devotion to her family, friends and all the students she taught through the years. Anita also had a commitment to the gentlemen she served and cared for at The Verland, where she was the Residential Manager. Anita will be desperately missed by her family, friends, and co-workers and anyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
