Completely unreferenced WP:BLP of a dancer and choreographer, swathed in far too much promotional advertorialism to sort out whether he actually has a credible claim to passing WP:CREATIVE or not. As always, everybody who exists is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he has a job -- he needs to be able to show some evidence of distinction (awards, critical analysis of the significance of his work, etc.) to pass the notability bar, and he needs to be able to show real reliable source coverage about those distinctions to verify that the claims are accurate. So no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody is able to write and reference an article properly, but he isn't entitled to keep an unreferenced article that reads like it was written by a first year public relations student.

• Delete. Although Google search returned results, very hard to find reliable secondary sources with in-depth coverage. Not notable as per WP:NBIO and WP:CREATIVE as of now.
