Kristyn McGeehan is the Assistant Director of Brooks & Company Dance. She has been with them since their inaugural performance in 2005 and performed a myriad of roles with them. She has choreographed for the company since 2007, setting her first full length work in 2009. That work, Chiaroscuro, was described by local critic Cynthia Perry as exploring “darker sorts of relationships, depicting individuals’ struggles with mental illness as physical human conflicts . . . dancers played out inner conflicts of psychological states with striking clarity.” When her work was shown at the Modern Atlanta Dance festival, Ms. Perry said that "both dancers met this work’s gut-wrenching technical demands with emotional power, strength and precision." Since then her work has been described as “elegant” and “exultant”.

She is an avid fan of literature and psychology and enjoys exploring both through her work.
