He is the founder and director of Semeneya Dance Company in San Antonio, Texas.  Lee has been a featured artist at numerous national and international events.  He has had the privilege of teaching and performing in many foreign countries, including the Bahamas, Belgium, Bermuda, Canada, Curacao, France, India, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Russia, and the United Kingdom.  He is known for his playful manner of teaching, unique turn patterns, creative choreography, and his ability to light up a crowd with his famous “improv acting” skills.
