A Native from Detroit Michigan, Renee Petkovski fell in love with dancing, acting and modeling at a very young age.
With her first print ad in People magazine at 11 years old, Petkovski knew she was hooked, and has been successfully pursuing her dreams ever since.
Petkovski continued her dancing and training, while attending Western Michigan University. In college, she honed her dancing, teaching and choreography skills, while graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Dance. Immediately following graduation Petkovski was hired as a featured dancer in the hit Broadway style musical “Katonga” at Busch Gardens in Tampa, Florida.
Petkovski lived by the philosophy that with the right attitude and work ethic you can accomplish anything. She quickly moved up the ranks to dance captain as well as casting, choreography and maintaining the quality of numerous shows in the park.
Petkovski always had her sights on something more. She decided to take a leap of faith and danced her way into Hollywood, California. She is now signed with two of LA’s elite agencies and has become and established dancer, choreographer and model in the industry.
Some of her credits include, ABC’s hit show “How To Get Away With Murder,” ABC Family’s hit show “Bunheads,” Paula Abdul, Shakira, Chiquis Rivera, Far East Movement, Don Omar, Latin Billboard Awards, Latin Grammy’s, Heineken, Sketchers, L’OREAL Matrix, Los Angeles Clippers, LA Sparks, Utah Jazz and many more.
